How does the Bill of Rights ensure the basic rights and freedom of Americans?

actually it dosent because you still can go to jail for something you didn't do and the system is still unfair ANSWER: the amendments, know as the bill of rights were designed to protect the basic rights of U.S. citizens, guaranteeing the freedom of speech, press, assembly, and excercises of religion; the right to fair legal procedures and to bear arms and that power not delegated to the federal government were reserved for the states

Explanation:

so even though the bill of rights are there some people with higher jobs take advantage of the rights
