Well the deadliest disaster in US history was in 1900, from the tropical Galveston cyclone in texas, which caused 6,000-12,000 deaths and around $28,000,000 in damage. Only 6 years later, the second deadliest disaster was the 1906 San Francisco hurricane and fire which claimed over 3,000 deaths.
14 Amendment says:
No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.
The 4th Amendment states that people shall not be subject to unreasonable searches and seizures, and no unreasonable warrants shall be issued for unreasonable searches and seizures without a good reason.
The 5th Amendment states that everyone has a right to a trial by jury, and that nobody shall be tried for the same crime more than once. It also prevents people from being forced to provide evidence that could be used to incriminate their own self. Finally, people's property or life or freedom cannot be taken away without due process of law, and private property that has been seized for public use will warrant just compensation.
The 6th Amendment states that every person has a right to a speedy and public trial, as well as the right to be confronted with the witnesses against their self, a right to an attorney in their case, and a right to know the charges they are being tried for.
