The FiFth Amendment, Bill of Rights, Clause3
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 offence 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.This article is about the fifth amendement and how it is being used in society. A couple showed up at Obama's first state dinner and they did not answer a question because they thaught they did not have to answer the question by stating the fifth amendment.
This article cleary states the Fifth Amendment of the U.S. Constitution. 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 offence 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. This article shows the fifth amendment because the couple did not feel like they really had to answer the question because they thought it would infringe themselves.
I think the couple should of answered the question because they were not even invited to the dinner. If the couple was invited to the dinner then it would of been a different story.
