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.
