The First Amendment states:
"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances."
The fact that Eichman was tried for his act violates the Amendment. The First Amendment protects the freedom of expression. Eichman was simply expressing what he felt about the government's policy. He in no way shape or form threatened or physically harmed anything or anyone. Being tried for something the Constitution protects is extremely unjust.
