Now I'll go with press, assembly, and petition.

What does this information mean? What are its implications? What thoughts/emotions does it evoke?

For press:
A: People can share things about the govt. that you may not know otherwise.

You can voice your opinions in print without govt. censorship.

It is important but not taken advantage of by many citizens.

For assembly:
A: You can lead or be a part of massive protests without fear of being sent to jail or govt. inference, as long as you do not resort to violence.

You can hold public public meetings and form associations.

It is very important to remember if you are ever worried about gathering with people to discuss or debate issues and being considered a part or member of something like a terrorist group.

For petition:
A: You have the power to influence or inspire bills and laws.

The common man has the power to shape his government.

Is a mighty power of a citizen.

So what? What is the significance of this text? What are its impacts?

For press:
A: Enables people to be informed on government policies and actions.

Provides voters with insight on the policies that they are voting upon.

For assembly:
A: Unites people for a common purpose.

Brings attention to important issues that need to be addressed and discussed but are often not.

For petition:
A: Gives the people a voice in how their govt. is run.

Gives people chances to make changes in the govt.

For petition, changes in government policy, too. Perhaps that's what you mean by "changes in the gov't." Otherwise, this is good!

In none of this do you address the "thoughts and emotions", though.
"It is important but not taken advantage of by many citizens."

"It is very important to remember if you are ever worried about gathering with people to discuss or debate issues and being considered a part or member of something like a terrorist group."

and

"It is a mighty power of a citizen."

These are all my thoughts. They aren't exactly written as thoughts, but they're my thoughts.

Are they not good enough?
I don't want to just say, "It makes me angry" or "I'm made upset by this."
Or is that how I am supposed to write down "thoughts or emotions?"
Okay. There is no "wrong" to your thoughts! Let nobody tell you there ever is! We get our facts mixed up sometimes, and can be corrected, but our feelings are always valid.

I'm not quite sure what you mean by "...a mighty power of a citizen", though. I THINK I do, but you could make it a clearer statement.

As usual, you are a good student, Victoria!
Thank you, Reed! :)
