This answer is my opinion.
I don’t think someone should be persecuted for his beliefs. Persecution is hating someone purely on the basis of how he worships God. Worshipping God is a peaceful activity that doesn’t involve hurting or hating anyone else. To hate someone purely because of how he does that is wrong.
I’m not sure what you mean by religious persecution against minorities. If you mean religious minorities, I would say that as a whole, religious persecution against minorities tends to ebb and flow depending on popular opinion. If a high profile person or group of people who are members of a given religion do something horrible, Americans persecute all the people who they think are members of that religion until the horrible incident is forgotten about by the American public. An example of this was the persecution of people believed to be or who actually were Muslims after the 9/11 attacks.
The American Constitution’s Bill of Rights is a set of rules which were made, in part, to prevent and destroy ethnocide in the United States. On a global scale, the Universal Declaration of Human Rights was created to prevent and destroy ethnocide.

The Declaration arose directly from the experience of the Second World War and represents the first global expression of rights to which all human beings are inherently entitled.
