Constitutional Connection:   Amendment 1 - Freedom of Assemble
     Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.
Explanation of Connection:
      There have been protests for and against the mosque to be built on ground zero.  Some do not think it is right for there to be a Muslim center near the 9/11 attack.  Around the corner, supporters of the mosque are protesting for the rights of the Muslims to be able to practice their religion freely.
       This is an example of the first amendment because it is showing freedom of assemble. The people protesting against the mosque do not believe that the Muslim's should practice their religion near the September 11 attack. But supporters of the mosque believe that its their constitutional right to practice their religion where they choose. 
        This video is interesting because it shows how both sides of issue are feeling about the mosque being built.  Even though President Obama agreed to the mosque, people are still cominng together to either protest against it or protect it.
