The Fourth Amendment to the United States Constitution was agreed upon during America's Founding Period primarily due to the practical experience of Americans during British rule of their homes. Not only did British officials and/or troops enter American homes at will and violently; they also received permission to do so by way of a prejudiced process: British legal authorities granted such permissions in pursuit of the same objectives as those pursued by the officials and troops violating American homes. The Fourth Amendment sought to prevent such problems from arising in future.
