Rights

1. My right is the right to privacy.

2. The rights of privacy exist because of many reasons. For the 3rd amendment it mainly exist because when America was a British Colony the British quartered soldiers and the new America didn't want to be anything like the British. The 4th amendment of privacy was because of the public compliant against officials that were able to go through any one's belongings. The rights of privacy mainly exist because of the public complaint against not having privacy.

3. The rights of privacy are protected under the United States Constitution through its many amendments. The 3rd Amendment allows the privacy of one's house against quartering soldiers. The 4th Amendment protects the privacy of one's belongings against unreasonable searches. A cop would not be able to search your house without a warrant. the 5th amendment protects against the taking of private property for public use. With these amendments, I basically have the right to protect my personal belonging and property.

4. The right of privacy has a big limitation involving the government. The government is allowed to seize your private belonging with reason. They can also listen to your phone calls and look at your private information. If the authorities have a reason or a warrant they are able to go through all your personal belongings.

5. These limitations against privacy exist because of the terrorism in America. They also exist so that a person cannot be in possession of illegal things such as drugs.

6. If I had to give up the right of privacy I would want an increase in power of all my other rights. I would want all my other rights to have no limitations. Although there isn't one big law that gives the right of privacy it is still an important right to lose. Without this right the army could have soldiers in public resident's houses, and officials could search your belongings when ever they would want to. The increase in power of all the other rights such as freedom of speech and press would be the only thing that could compensate losing the right of privacy.
