First Amendment

The First Amendment allows the people of the United States to voice unpopular opinions, preventing tyranny by the majority. It also allows people to assembly peaceable and allows the press to report fact and voice opinion without prior restraint. If we cannot petition our government for the redress of grievances we risk the hardening of a permanent majority into a self-enforcing bureaucracy.

Thomas Jefferson once said that if forced to choose between government without newspapers, and newspapers without government, he wouldn't hesitate to choose the latter. Assembly, the exchange of ideas, and understanding the actions of society keep us free, and are why the press was intended to be a de facto fourth branch of government.

"Free Speech is the right to yell, "Theater!" at a crowded fire."

- Abbie Hoffman, radical, describing the First Amendment

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.
