Discussion Board -Constitution Discussion Board Forum
The United Slates' Constitution set up the foundation of government and the foundation of our rights. However, questions remain on how this document should be interpreted given much language in the document A open to interpretation. For example, what does the right to -bear arm. mean? Should this right be absolute or should there be limits on what types of weapons citizens can use for their own seff defense? In addition, what is considered an "unreasonable" search by pd.? That is, is it unreasonable for police to enter into a house without a warrant, or should there be exceptions N this requirement? Furthermore, what is -cruel and unusual punishment'? Should the death panelty qualify as cruel or unusuaI? One final example is who should determine when to engage US troops into military on..? While the Congress has the power to declare war, the President A the Commander in Chief. The liar goes on and on:
So with this in mind, here is your assignment for this dia..ion board: choose a phrase or word from the oonstitution and explain how you think it should be interpreted (feel free to use one of the examples I gave above or you can pick your own).
