ID (Interdisciplinary Post)

In my class Participation in Government we are always learning a new piece of the law. Today for example we learned about the jurisdictions of the different courts and the different kind of situations they handle. Also we having been learning about different Supreme Court cases and how these cases has effected the law today. We had to read a article about a law that is introduced that effects the 4th Amendment.

This article was based on the police letting people know they have the right to say no to the consent of search. This causes a conflict of interest between the police and the citizens walking the street. If people are aware of this, everybody will most likely decline the search. This only proves that the law is being changed over and over and still trying to make it right for the people of this country. The police do not want this law to go into effect because they feel it protects the criminals even more and puts the police in more danger.

Since the law isn't perfect by far these changes to the law need to be made. The laws being put into place are there to protect the people. The changes to the law are to protect the people from any unjust treatment today. I only think this is interesting because if I ever want to have a career in law then I have to know it. I have to know the law better than I know the back of my hand.
