Darin, I agree with all of your points except one. In your response, you stated, "For example, according to the 4th amendment in the US Constitution, people have a right to be private and their privacy can't be violated for any reason." This piece of evidence is not true. Any law enforcement officer may search you or your property without a warrant, as long as they have a strong suspicion that you are about to, or are in the act of committing a crime. I would suggest rewording the statement or find a different statement, because the one you have used isn’t
We all expect to have privacy in our homes, but just how much privacy do we actually have? In Oregon, DLK was suspected to be growing marijuana in his home, so the police used thermal imaging, without a warrant, to provide evidence to arrest him. DLK claimed that his right to protection from search and seizure, provided by the fourth amendment, was violated. The Supreme Court then had to decide if the thermal imaging scan infringed DLK’s fourth amendment rights. While he may have been growing marijuana in his home, the U.S. Government violated his fourth amendment rights when they used thermal imaging, without a warrant, to gather evidence.
The Fourth Amendment to the United States Constitution states, “The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized”. It consists of two clauses, the reasonableness clause which focuses on the reasonableness of a search and seizure and the warrant clause which limits the scope of a search. There are many views on how the Fourth Amendment should be interpreted, especially by today’s standards. The world has evolved significantly since the implementation of the Bill of Rights. As it evolved, time brought about numerous cases on the applicability of the Fourth Amendment. When plaintiffs are not satisfied with the decision of lower courts, they can
Although people in the United States are entitled to privacy and freedom there is a limit to that privacy. State or federal officers are allowed where justified to search your car, house, property in order to seize illegal items such as drugs, illegal weapons, stolen goods just to name a few. When the police do searches it can be for various reasons it depends on the situation. They can have a search warrant to go into a premises and confiscate illegal paraphernalia or when doing a routine traffic stop an officer might become suspicious of activity that is not normal and conduct a search of the vehicle to see why the driver is not acting normal. When conducting searches it is required sometimes to get a warrant which is a document
The 4th amendment, search and seizure causes a lot of problems. Search and Seizure is the rights that police have when they enter in a home. The standard for conducting a warrantless search, probable cause, is the same standard necessary for a warrant to issue. An illegal search or illegal seizure is a violation of your Fourth Amendment rights, and any evidence seized must be excluded from trial. Normally police need a search warrant to enter into a home unless they get the consent to enter in the home without one they normally don't go go into a home without anything. A terry pat is when a police officer can detain or conduct a reasonable search for weapons where the officer has the reason to believe the person is armed. Auto stops is
The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.” –U.S. Constitutional Amendments
The Fourth Amendment of the Constitution was ratified in 1791 and is an important amendment in the Bill of Rights. The Fourth Amendment is “the right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized” (Charles Wetterer). The issue of searching and seizing first originated in Britain in the mid-1700’s where British officers had general warrants to search citizens. While this became an issue for citizens in Britain, it became apparent also in the colonies where British soldiers were searching with only general warrants. Many citizens believed it was an invasion of privacy. So after independence from Britain, and the failure of the Articles of Confederation, the Constitution was produced. George Mason, an important political figure in Virginia, had written the Virginia Declaration of Rights, and he and other delegates believed the primary purpose of the government was to protect the rights of its citizens. To further that, he believed citizens had the right to be secure from unlawful searches and seizures. Once the idea of the Bill of Rights came into play, the Fourth Amendment was also created. The Fourth Amendment actually guarantees two things: You cannot search or seize unless you have a warrant and a
The Fourth Amendment is part of the Bill of Rights which was established in the seventeenth and eighteenth century English common law. Aside from the rest of the amendments in the Bill of Rights the Fourth Amendment can be traced back to a strong public reaction from some cases back in the 1760s. Two of these cases happened in England and one case happened in the colonies. These cases involved some pamphleteers who would pass out pamphlets to the public in order to spread their word around. These pamphlets however ridiculed the king and his ministers. After finding this out the king issued warrants to have the pamphleteer’s homes ransacked and stripped of all their books and papers. Even back then the pamphleteers knew that their rights
What assessments can be made about antebellum slavery when subjected to an external economic analysis of the institution? To answer this question, you must first identify six economic factors/forces that had an impact on either the slave institution generally and/or the slave, specifically, and then describe the specific detail the specific impact of effect on the slave.
The Fourth Amendment of the United States Constitution applies to a person and their home by providing protection against unreasonable seizures and searches. While it provides protection, not every search and seizure can be deemed unreasonable unless it is classified as per the law, by determining whether there was: a) the level of intrusion of the individuals Fourth Amendment, and b) whether or not it pertains to the government’s interest, such as safety of the public.
I agree with you Anika. As an American citizen, you shouldn’t be ignorant of your rights because situations may occur and all you have to fall back on is you Constitutional Rights. For example, when you’re home and the police busted in your house. What would you do? Would you continue to let them invade your privacy or would you ask for the search warrant? The Fourth Amendment protects you from unreasonable searches and seizures. If the cops were to find something during the search but without a warrant, and anything they find is inadmissible in court. As long as you know your rights everything will be the fine.
All Americans are entitled to their rights. The Fourth Amendment states that we the people have to deny search and seizures from law enforcement without a warrant. The fourth amendment generally prohibits police from entering a home without a warrant unless the circumstances fit an established exception to the warrant requirement. According to the book The Constitution: Our Written Legacy by Joseph A. Melusky, the Fourth Amendment gives the right of the people to be secure in their person, houses, papers, and effects against unreasonable searches and seizures. Although we are entitled to these rights, police sometimes use and abuse their authority. In many cases, the Fourth Amendment has helped prove the innocence of one’s actions.
Another place the Right to Privacy can be found is in the Fourth Amendment. The Fourth Amendment states that, “The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.” So basically, this Amendment protects people from unreasonable searches. So it helps to prevent someone from trying to search your home without a warrant. Another example would be someone trying to search your car without probable cause. These are things that people need protection from and this is how we stay protected.
As the administrative assistant in my organization a lot of the associate turn to me as a resource and at one point in my new position I believed that some believed I was in a monitorial rule. To illustrate, Kyle a customer service associate, tends to request through me to either leave early or to assist in revival for a break. I remember letting him know one day when he needed to go home early because his anxiety was acting up. I let him know that I would ask the manager on shift if he could leave early because not only was he leave four hours before his shift but I would have to find someone to come in for him. It was already bad that I had so much on my plate as it was I was tired of hearing him wanting to go home all the time. Regardless,

The right to privacy, although not explicitly said, can be found in the fourth, fifth, and ninth amendments. The constitution grants Americans the right to privacy, yet the government continues to violate this protected right in an attempt to keep its citizens safe. Presidents such as George W. Bush who ordered the NSA and other organizations to spy on American claim that they have the power to do so. However, this violates the system of checks and balances, as the president cannot grant himself power without it being reviewed by the other branches. In fact, the Supreme Court has previously stated, in a court decision, that electronic surveillance is prohibited with only a few expectations, such as the FISA and
