Amendment 3 - Quartering of Soldiers.

Amendment 3 - Quartering of Soldiers. Ratified 12/15/1791.

No Soldier shall, in time of peace be quartered in any house, without the consent of the Owner, nor in time of war, but in a manner to be prescribed by law.

Exactly what it says? Meaning that the man, can't make you keep soldiers at your crib when we are not in a state of war....Unless you allow it. The second part of this I need to research a little. I am curious what the "prescribed by law" portion might entail. I'll let you know.
