“But what he seeks to keep as private, even in an area accessible to the public may be constitutionally protected” ~ Justice Potter Stewert (Katz vs. United States). Now don’t get me wrong, because at no point am I saying that what DLK was doing was “right”. However, DLK obviously “expected to keep what he was doing as private”. Therefore, the law enforcement should have gotten a search warrant from a judge prior to searching DLK’s home. I believe many of you would argue that the law enforcement didn’t need to get a search warrant in order to search DLK’s house, because DLK could easily destroy the evidence.
If I lived back in that time, and having just finished the war with Britain where we finally got our independence, I would remind people all the issues we had. Britain was trying to tell us what we needed to do and how we needed to do things without really knowing what our problems were here. How is this new Constitution which gives a lot of power to the national government different from having Britain tell us what we needed to do. I would think if I lived back then I would say we are going from one wrong to another and I would oppose the Constitution. The Anti-Federalists did not want to ratify the Constitution.
If DLK had over 100 plants in his house, there is no possible way he could have moved them all before authorities caught him. In document A1, the author states, “The Supreme Court ruled that the warrantless search was valid because otherwise, Carroll might drive away and the evidence would disappear.” In this case, the search was valid against Carroll because he could have easily driven away with the liquor in his car; therefore, some could argue the officials were in “hot pursuit,” giving them permission to do so. It is physically impossible, not just for DLK, but for any person to transport over 100 marijuana plants without there being sight of
As a result, immigration policy has lost its independent polity agenda. [Therefore,] virtually no new immigration policies have been created separated from terrorism policies since 2001.” Particularly, illegal immigration has overlapped with growing concerns about national security. The first official immigration initiative by the US government since 9/11 was the enactment of the Real ID Act in 2005. This new legislation required that drivers’ licenses issued by states had to conform to national standards, thereby making it difficult for illegal immigrant s from obtaining the licenses without having to prove their legal status and residency in the US. This legislation, however, proved to have many loopholes around it for illegal immigrants to obtain drivers’ licenses regardless of their illegal status because the states were not obliged to conform to the standards.
The Americans just needed to keep the idea of fighting for their independence and never give up that idea. That will win the war for the Americans. As the war begins the English sent over soldiers and ships to take over New York. British won every battle. Americans were almost defeated.
The purpose of the Declaration of Independence was the people trying to fight for their freedom, which at the time meant political justice and insubordination to King George III. This was also a way for them to justify the American Revolutionary War. The list of complaints against King George were many. Some of these complaints were that he kept a domestic army stationed in the colonies even though there was no war being fought at the time and these armies were deemed superior to any civil power there in the colonies. King George III controlled the judiciary powers and did so by pardoning his soldiers who committed murder by protecting them with mock trials.
Although Congress passed for bills known as the Alien and Sedition Acts in 1798 intending to help protect the government of the united states from potential threats, they did not truly protect Americans from their foreign enemies. There were many controversies that developed around and because of these acts. The Alien Acts had three parts. The first part stated that you had to live on U.S. soil for at least fourteen years in oder to become a citizen. This made it harder for foreighners to become citizens.The second part stated that the President had power to deport all aliens that he thought dangerous to the peace and safety of the United States.
The means justify virtuous ends. JAMES MADISON: The last thing this new country needs is another Shays’s rebellion. We needed to vaguely define this broad power to prevent anarchy, and a repeat of the Articles of Confederation. Thomas wishes to literally read the clause, but it should not be read that way. The clause reflects compromise over an ideological question of sovereignty.
In an effort to avoid a possible war with Britain, Washington sent Supreme Court Chief Justice John Jay to Great Britain to negotiate. The verdict was that the British promised to evacuate outposts on United States soil (not likely) and pay for damages for seized American vessels, with no promise to stop future seizures. In exchange, the United States had to pay back Revolutionary War debts and abide by Great Britain’s restrictive trading policies toward France. The treaty was not extremely popular, but for the Federalists it was an opportunity to create a better relationship with Britain. For the Democratic-Republicans, it was more like surrender to Britain and a betrayal of the South, who would have to pay a major share of the war debt while wealthy Federalist shippers were being
For instance in this topic, there is no evidence to support the assertion that legalizing pot will stop the illegal sale of the substance, and help regulate marijuana use. There is also no guarantee that by no longer imprisoning marijuana users they will not use more dangerous substances and move on to other criminal behavior. The side of the controversy that is best is decided by the individual, how it is viewed in their culture and morals he or she may have. Lastly, the decision of legalization rests in the hands of our government and what they believe is best for the protection of our country and its people. Even if the proposition is passed by the citizens the government can impeach it or the president can veto
