What American Bill of Rights do you think where depicted in movie so far? Why?

Give examples...

People fight for freedom, for love for their family in this movie. I think the true reason that pushes them to fight is their human dignity. They are human, they care their family and they their love, so they feel their responsibility to protect these things they care and love. It's not just American culture but the couture of the world.

values:
freedom: it hink in the movie, in the Revolutional war, American interpret their strong desire for freedom. the fight bravely and sacrifice for the freedom.
independence: the Revolutional war not only show American strong desire for freedom but also convey their independent spirit. for example, when Gabrel decided to join the army that is against his father's will, Martin have to respect gabriel's decision. at the same time, Gabriel's devotin to his nation for the freedom moves us.

rights
American Bill of Rights:
Amendment II -- A well regulated Militia being necessary to the security of a Free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms shall not be infringed.
in the movie, Martin led the militia to fight against Red army, which depict the bill.

I think it is democracy and independence that display in this movies

Equality, through which all people are entitled to life, liberty, rights, and the freedom to pursue happiness regardless of gender, race, ethnicity, age, nationality and social or economic conditions;

Diversity, a value that enriches our perspectives and gives value and legitimacy to our work;

Knowledge sharing, key to the enhanced protection of human rights, improved quality of people’s participation in society and the creation of forward looking human rights programmes;
