Their views on many issues are known.
After graduating with honours from St. Paul (now William Mitchell) College of Law in 1931, Burger joined a prominent St. Paul law firm and gradually became active in Republican Party politics. In 1953 he was appointed an assistant U.S. attorney general, and in 1955 he was nominated by President Dwight D. Eisenhower to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia. Burger’s generally conservative approach during his 13-year service (1956–69) on the nation’s second highest court commended him to President Richard M. Nixon, who in 1969 named Burger to succeed Earl Warren as chief justice of the Supreme Court. He was quickly confirmed and in June 1969 was sworn in as the nation’s chief justice.
Contrary to some popular expectations, Burger and his three fellow Nixon-appointed justices did not try to reverse the tide of activist decision making on civil-rights issues and criminal law that was the Warren court’s chief legacy. The court upheld the 1966 Miranda decision, which required that a criminal suspect under arrest be informed of his rights, and the court also upheld busing as a permissible means of racially desegregating public schools and the use of racial quotas in the distribution of federal grants and contracts to minorities. Under Burger’s leadership the court did dilute several minor Warren-era decisions protecting the rights of criminal defendants, but the core of the Warren court’s legal precedents in this and other fields survived almost untouched.

Answer:
Hello Adam Here!!!
Explanation:
1. We would not have freedom of speech. In some nations, even in Europe people have been jailed for saying or even tweeting things that the government or authorities deemed distasteful in some manner.
2. Gun rights would be non-existent. Some would cheer this. The problem however is this means most if not all firearms would be in the hands of the government.
3. Say you own a home. Well, in times of crisis and conflict the government could put military personnel in your house if not for Amendment III.
4. Speaking of homes. What if the authorities could just come in and start searching around in your home and belongings just because they felt like it? No warrant and no probable cause? Amendment IV protects us from that.
5. Double jeopardy and due process. A citizen cannot be tried twice for the same offense (with very few and outstanding exceptions). Even if accused of a crime, a citizen cannot just be thrown in prison based simply on an accusation.
6. A citizen would not have the right to a speedy trial by an impartial jury. Imagine spending 5 years behind bars only to finally be plonked in front of a judge who determines your guilt or innocence.
Hope This Helps! From Adam
