Fifth Amendment

"No person shall be held to answer for a capital, or otherwise infamous crimes, on a presentment or indictment of a Grand Jury, except in cases arising in the land or naval forces, or in the Militia, when in actual service in time of War or public danger; nor shall be compelled in any criminal case to be a witness against himself, nor be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation." 


What It Means To Me:
Protection from government in court trials, testifying against ones self, Due Process Law, and private property.


Relation:
Dave Chappelle, a comedian, over-uses the Fifth Amendment.

Relation:

I wish! The Fifth Amendment can be used in many ways as you can see, so why can't it apply to our grades??
