States now have to abide by all the amendments. In the past they were not constrained by the 1st amendment but absolutely were by the 2d, 3d, 4th and 5th. The first just addresses Congress "Congress shall pass no law...." The 2d is an absolute prohibition of any "infringements."
You believe a state doesn't have to abide by trail by juries, or can make you incriminate yourself? What constitution are you reading anyway?

States now have to abide by all the amendments. False. Sourceless, naturally.
