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.

I like that, A LOT!!!
Well our Constitution says otherwise and judges can’t make law. You won’t be using my house.
Revolution was partly fought over soldiers being housed in civilian homes so…
there is a time and place.. if a fugitive(s) are hold up literally next door to me, then no$#%&!@*they need to use MY house… BUT, big difference if they simply want my place out of convenience. so yea, time and place, and very poorly worded headline. did judge say ONLY ” As they see fit”.. END of his entire sentence and requirements ? or did he justify it with ” As they see fit, as long as the circumstances warrant such an act in order to protect life and property”.. I would like to see ALLLLLLL of this judges ruling.. not a snipit.. I am NOT anti-police, or really Anti-govt, just anti-IDIOTS with power..who want only MORE power. those are the dangerous ones.
Not in my life time
We can only hope this country does a huge 180 come November.
Not I payed for my home
They are talking about taking your house cause they can if they want too, not talking about helping catch some because if that was the case I would to but they are talking the other
Unless you are black, brown, latino or a MUSLIM. RIGHT JUDGE.
That’s an over extension of power. I support cops fully but you will not be taking over my home for any reason without my permission first.
