Best Answer

the third amendment concerns the quartering of soldiers, AKA soldiers going to peoples houses and demanding shelter, because the british soldiers did this all the time. they moved into houses, made the people there serve them and ate their food. the colonists hated this so the founding fathers made sure that it would be outlawed in their new country.
