Discuss the specific safeguards against the type of abuses that the colonists suffered at the hands of the British?) Assertions should be supported with BRIEF quotes taken from the primary source documents. Refer only to the original Constitution and the first ten amendments (the Bill of Rights), not the amendments that followed. Similarly, confine the specific grievances addressed in the Declarations and Resolves. The purpose of this exercise is to have you analyze the primary source documents, not do research on the internet.
I would suggest that you pursue directed reading — ie, skim through the Declarations and Resolves trying to identify the key issues that the colonists were concerned about, and then see if you can match those grievances to elements of the Constitution and Bill of Rights.
