Dante Learns The 5th Amendment


Yet another one of those Amendments that people love to throw around. I’m seriously waiting to get to one of these that, like, no one ever uses and start using it. I’m sure there has to be one that covers people not taking your cow if it has only two spots on it or something. The 5th Amendment is funny because people only say one line regarding it but is nowhere in it.

I said the 5th...nevermind.

“No person shall be held to answer for a capital, or otherwise infamous crime, unless 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 any person be subject for the same offense to be twice put in jeopardy of life or limb; 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.”
