DHS invades small town, violating 3rd Amendment. ACLU takes notice...!

[rightwinger]

The SWAT team assembled on publicly held property.

[MENTION=20321]rightwinger[/MENTION]
Publicly held by the locals, not the federal government.

The Post Office would have been more appropriate, since it is federally owned.

You have just endorsed the federal Government seizing publicly owned buildings by locals. If there's a housing complex/project run and owned by a local government, can the feds quarter their troops in that project?

Who cares what level of government?

Local officials can work it out with the Feds. In a public emergency, Feds have the authority.

 

[koshergrl]

No public emergency, feds don't belong there.

Did Congress authorize it?

Im not seeing where soldiers are being housed anywhere.

 

[Skylar]

Since 99% of the people in the US don't even know what the Third Amendment is, don't expect to see it advertised in any article.

Apparently you're one of them. Here's the 3rd amendment;

No Soldier shall, in time of peace be quartered in any house, without the consent of the Owner, nor in time of war, but in a manner to be prescribed by law.

A school isn't a house.

Done.

The Ninth and Tenth Amendments care...

Where's not there yet, but their leading up to it by running afoul to the Spirit of the 3rd Amendment.

The 3rd Amendment was specifically designed to defend American citizens AGAINST a Police State, with squads of troops of every street corner. This amendment to the BILL OF RIGHTS originated from the abuses suffered under King George who used his Redcoats to invade and occupy and usurp English Common Law in colonial urban regions, such as Boston...

Obama's DHS and federal LEO's now have five explicit incidents that ran afoul of the spirit of the 3rd Amendment.

And now Progressive posters like [MENTION=20321]rightwinger[/MENTION] have admitted that it would be perfectly legal for the federal government to quarter troops in a public housing project.

Where do you think this leads to [MENTION=854]Avatar4321[/MENTION] ??? Do you think it's ok for the feds to commandeer local institutions to quarter troops among the local population?

Try again

They have nothing to do with temporary appropriation of public facilities

The U.S. perimeter is being prodded, poked, and tested.

Not from without, but from within... since 2008.

Since 2008. BWA-HA-HA-HA!

And people think I'm joking when I say the New Right rubes were in a coma until January 2009.

Read your third amendment

No Soldier shall, in time of peace be quartered in any house, without the consent of the Owner, nor in time of war, but in a manner to be prescribed by law.

Can be done, but it must follow the law

 

[Avatar4321]

I understand your point 2nd.

I just don't see soldiers being housed in the homes of citizens, so there is no violation.

 

[The2ndAmendment]

read your third amendment

no soldier shall, in time of peace be quartered in any house, without the consent of the owner, nor in time of war, but in a manner to be prescribed by law.

can be done, but it must follow the law

only during war.

During peace, it cannot happen period, unless the Owner gives their consent.

 

[koshergrl]

They will be. If they're showing up and commandeering school grounds, it's just a matter of time.

Of course it is.

 

[The2ndAmendment]

The precedent has been set to commander public housing projects. [MENTION=20321]rightwinger[/MENTION] has admitted this.

Police are allowed to commandeer private property in a time of emergency

No I haven't

Show any case where soldiers have been housed in public housing projects

 

[The2ndAmendment]

Police are allowed to commandeer private property in a time of emergency

Local police, state police, or federal police?

What is an emergency? Was arresting this non-violent (but otherwise sicko) an emergency?

Where does the Third Amendment say "federal agents may commandeer private property during emergencies."

Are you not familiar with Griswold vs Connetcuit that expanded "Soldiers" to mean federal agents? It would be obscene to NOT consider federal paramilitary LEO's as Soldiers.

No I haven't

You said it was ok for the feds to commandeer a local public building (schoolhouse in the particular case).

Police. Doesn't matter at what level

My only problem with this thing is it is blatant overkill. Why do you need to stage a SWAT team to arrest someone with kiddie porn on their computer?

Just go up and knock on his door

Griswold v. Connecticut makes no mention of "federal agents" or "soldiers". It involved privacy rights and contraception, not the Third Amendment.
