The Second, Third, and Fourth Amendments specifically represent protections drawn from
The Second Amendment: The right to bear arms. This amendment protects the individual's right to possess and carry firearms for self-defense, as well as for other lawful purposes such as hunting and sport shooting.
The Third Amendment: Protection against the quartering of troops. This amendment prohibits the government from forcibly housing soldiers or any other military personnel in private homes during peacetime without the consent of the homeowner.
The Fourth Amendment: Protection against unreasonable searches and seizures. This amendment safeguards individuals from arbitrary governmental intrusions into their personal privacy. It establishes that searches and seizures must be based on probable cause, and warrants can only be issued upon showing of such cause and with specific descriptions of the person or place to be searched or seized. It also protects against general, indiscriminate searches by requiring search warrants to be supported by an oath or affirmation and based on specific evidence.
