Second Amendment Current Event Re-Post

Who: A reluctant District of Columbia
What: They decided to allow concealed weapons in the country's capital
When: The article was posted shortly after the event, September 23, 2014
Where: In the nation's capital, Washington DC
Why: It was done because many argued in the nation's capital that banning the right for the public to conceal weapons should be legalized because banning it was against the constitution's second amendment.  The district of Columbia had to agree and granted the permission of citizens to carry concealed handguns with them, assuming they are legal, registered weapons.

Who: Arizona
What: The Us Supreme Court must rule on Arizona's new immigration law
Where: Arizona, United States
When: June 21, 2012

Fourth Amendment Current Event

Who: Ashely Bell, a citizen of Indianapolis
What: Police officers stormed her car after they reportedly smelled raw marijuana
Where: Indianapolis
When: July 28, 2014
Why: Ashley Bell stated that she believed that when the police stormed her house, that it was an infringement of her rights granted her by the Bill of Rights.  A judge cleared the problem stating that it was not.  The Court of Appeals agreed with Bell that the officer had no right to assume Bell was armed and dangerous and therefore had no right to handcuff her and pat her down.  She was chared regardless of possession of marijuana.
