2nd amendment vs. 4th amendment. Why is one more important than the other ? once there is a precedent to bypass the 4th ? I just think it is something to think about. I get it that it is not a perfect analogy.
- ars 11y ago> precedent to bypass the 4th You mean like a search warrant? That's a pretty old precedent...........
- jMyles 11y agoWhat does a search warrant have to do with this controversy?
- bobwaycott 11y agoA search warrant is not in any way a bypass of the 4th amendment.
- baddox 11y agoMost people aren't going to just come out and say that they think one amendment is more important than another. They will just interpret each amendment to be compatible with their beliefs. Someone who proposes stricter gun control will interpret the 2nd amendment as a reference only to militias, or they might argue that there is a gun death epidemic in the US that is worth a "small" violation of the 2nd amendment. Similarly, someone who approves of the government's ability to decrypt a phone might argue that the threat of terrorist is worth a "small" violation of the 4th amendment.
- bcook 11y agoYeah, I agree. I was only criticizing the analogy (which I fumbled), because privacy itself is a very complex topic without involving it with gun rights.
- XorNot 11y agoThe 4th uses the term "unreasonable" quite specifically in regards to the right to privacy. It also has no specific stipulations for the deceased, who by definition almost don't have a right to privacy.
