Week 3


All of the amendments are necessary today. Without them, our country would be in chaos. One of the amendments is the fourth amendment. In this amendment, we are protected from unreasonable searches and seizures.
How would you like it if someone ran into your house to search it just because they suspect you of something? It wouldnt be very fair, especially if you didn't do anything. They would also have ruined your privacy. With the fourth amendment, many unnecessary searchings, such as these, are prevented.
Your house can only be searched if it is issued by the government and there is a warrant present.
