Description

Americans are particularly keen on their right to bear arms.

But, strikingly, America has a whole host of these crack-pot rights promised to its citizens, which over time have come to define the very essence of American-ness. Or brashness, as we like to say. They call it their Bill of Rights, which is a bit grand when you consider it's just a really fancy list.
