New Privacy Law/Ammendment?

THE SUPREME COURT:

 THE FOURTH AMENDMEN

T; Police Violate Privacy in Home Raids With

 Journalists

Published: May 25, 1999


          This article is about
 police and how they are breaking the 4th amendment when they break into a persons house for an arrest or raid with a journalist or photographer in company in order to take a record of the arrest or raid.

          An assignment that was assigned to us in Humanities class recently was to create a law or amendment that would protect peoples privacy.  I took this very literally, on purpose of course, and made up an amendment that would completely bar everything and anything the government could try to do to get into any ones property.  The amendment that I made up went a little something like this.

          No man, woman, child or government worker is allowed to intrude on the property of another man, woman, child or government worker, where the words intrude and property are defined by the citizen being intruded upon.  Furthermore no loopholes may be exploited in this ammendment, where loophole and exploit are also being defined by the citizen being intruded upon.

          This amendment will never even have a chance to be passed by the government, but it would be almost impenetrable as an amendment.  Upon judicial review this amendment would be almost immediately abolished, because it literally gives the government or anybody else for that matter any leeway with any case that requires searching property.  No one would be able to commit anyone of anything because no one would be able to search anothers house.

          For anyone that may reply to this blogpost, try and leave a privacy amendment of your own, I would be glad to add it into this post (with proper credit given of course) and will post what might happen if the amendment would go under judicial review.

wow jacob! your amendment sounds 100% amendment material, you foresaw a loophole and then said that loopholees are a form of intrusion.

nice!

also for an amendement idea to help this.

"in cases of trialing against acts of crime, reasonable warrants can be issued to search a property. it would be hypocritical for the one being searched to call it intrusion since they had commited intrusion first
