I'm not sure what you mean by shortened distance between speech and action. I know it doesn't make it so legally, I suppose I should have said 'in my opinion, these are non-negotiable'. As far as why, I think that it's because this is what separates us from other countries. There's plenty of things the US has done wrong int he past, but the Bill of Rights isn't one of them.
