The Third Amendment was created to protect your home from being quartered by soldiers without your consent. It has very rarely been a matter of debate or litigation, until now.
Federal district court Judge Andrew Gordon ruled that the police are exempt from the 3rd Amendment with a case out of Henderson, Nevada after a family had their home broken into and seized by local law enforcement who stated they needed the home to gain a “tactical advantage” against suspected criminals in a neighboring house.
Police actually forced their way into this family’s home, pepper-balled the father and his dog and then incarcerated the man for a day.

After reading this I think the judge is correct. He literally took the interpretation of the third amendment (police are soldiers). The question we should ask our selfs. If he took it literally, then all the other bill of rights need to be taken literally. Not interpreted. You always hear the courts, in regards to the second amendment, we should have reasonable gun control etc etc. if we take it literal, no where does it say we should have reasonable gun control. Same with the 4th amendment, persons, place and property. Literally that means you and everything you own. Get a warrant if you want to look at anything I own. But the courts have interpreted and watered down the 4th. They can’t have it both ways
Wouldn’t be a smart move on their stupidity.
How much more will the people take? How come these cops are willing to violate people?
Sadly the third amendment only Pplies to soldiers
Says no my cannons.
Umm, sorry judge, the cons$#%&!@*ution says otherwise. YOU have been overruled.
This isn’t real
Just look at all those exposed popliteal arteries…
Oh he’s familiar with the law, he’s just choosing to ignore it.
Really not a good idea. The noise from my house will definitely alert the neighbors they want to get the tactical advantage on.
