Which amendment to the United States Constitution guarantees the right to freedom of speech?

  1. First Amendment.

  2. Second Amendment.

  3. Fourth Amendment.

  4. Eighth Amendment.

The correct answer is: First Amendment.

The First Amendment guarantees the right to freedom of speech. This means that individuals are allowed to express their opinions and ideas without fear of censorship or punishment by the government. The Second Amendment, on the other hand, guarantees the right to bear arms. The Fourth Amendment protects against unreasonable searches and seizures. The Eighth Amendment prohibits cruel and unusual punishment. Therefore, options B, C, and D are incorrect because they do not pertain to the basic right of freedom of speech.
