Galactic+Bill+of+Rights

Today I want all of you to be forward thinkers! I want you to amend a fictitious constitution.

I want you to imagine that it is the year 2070. In an effort to address concerns about the lack of individual rights listed in the Universal Decree of Confederation, representatives from across the galaxy meet to write a galactic bill of rights.

I want you to assume that you are the galactic representatives. Brainstorm some concerns that a galaxy government might have in common with the First Congress in writing a bill of rights. Concerns might include an individual's right to be protected from interplanetary laser scans or the right to be tried by a jury of peers from one's own planet.

Let's do this in three groups.

Your galactic bill of rights must include a preamble followed by a list of rights for all galaxy inhabitants. Make sure it's realistic enough for people to accept its principles.
