Bill of Rights
(Continues from page 3)
He frequently referred to the Bill of Rights as parchment barrier. The Bill of Rights protects US citizens rights to freedom of speech, practice of religion, assembly, press and to keep and bear arms. It protects citizens against unreasonable search and seizure and the quartering of soldiers in their homes. It declares citizens rights to a trial by a jury of our peers, for said trial to be speedy and open to the public, held in the jurisdiction of the alleged crime, to understand the charges brought upon them as well as to confront their accusers. These amendments protect the people against excessive fines and punishments and double jeopardy. Finally, the tenth amendment declares that all powers not specifically designated to the federal government are powers given to the states.

Staff Writer, Clare Cawley At the Denton County Republican TEA Party meeting on September 24, club president, Mike Brucia, announced that he would be running for Texas House of Representatives in District 64.

For the past 13 years, a Crownover has been representing District 64. Crownover will be opposing Brucia in the primaries for the republican nomination.
Mary Kathryn Brown, 22-year-old University of North Texas student and president of the North Texas College Democrats, will be running on the democratic ticket. According to Brucia, our current elected officials are getting way too comfortable in their offices. I am tired of the business as usual attitude that permeates the Texas legislature.
