4th Amendment

The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.
Your 4th Amendment rights _should_ allow you to say no to the bored, profiling highway cop when he wants to tear apart your car looking for god-knows-what, but some states have loopholes these assholes can use. If you're not doing anything wrong, you don't need to be submissive to their whims and attitudes.

amendment process

The process of changing or adding to the US Constitution. The original writers of the Constitution decided to make this task difficult by stating that 2/3 of Congress had to approve it; and after that, 3/4 of the states had to approve it. This process is irksome and time-consuming.
The amendment process caused the law 3 years time before it finally passed.
