They aren’t supposed to be able to appropriate your property. We literally have an amendment against that 3rd, 4th and 9th amendments

The Supreme Court refused to weigh in because “it was soon to expire”



> We literally have an amendment

Feel the pain of 2A advocates. Or 14A (P&I) advocates. Or 10A advocates. Or..

The nature of government/authority is they will always creatively push the boundaries of what they can permissibly do. There are amendments that are considered "second-class" and even worse. If nobody defends it, it will not enforce itself.


"[Recent 6th circuit decision against moratorium] deepens the circuit split with the badly flawed DC Circuit decision in favor of the moratorium, and thereby increases the likelihood that the issue will eventually reach the Supreme Court, if the moratorium is extended beyond its current July 31 expiration date. He is also right that the Supreme Court recently signaled that at least five of nine justices believe the moratorium is illegal, even as a narrow 5-4 majority also—for now—refused to block enforcement of the moratorium."

5th amendment bars expropriation except without compensation

I never considered the 3rd amendment to be a protection against that but I can see how soldiers randomly living in your home could be seen as government appropriation


10th amendment too?
