Amendment 8

Original Amendment: Excessive bail shall not be required, nor excessive fines imposed, nor cruel and unusual punishments inflicted.

Summary:You can oppose bail that is too high or that should not have been charged. People also cannot be given cruel and unusual punishment because it is illegal. This bail interested me because it is a necessary amendment and should be taken seriously; not just by people and not just by the state itself, but by the world as one.
