"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."
I’m under the impression that this was a problem for the people who used to live under the rules of the British government, and maybe they were forced to house the militia at a moments notice, it obviously isn’t a problem today. I think it’s interesting that this is an amendment when we have much bigger problems on our hands.
No quartering of soldiers, is probably the least enforced because it is really only relevant during the the late 1700's. This has mostly just been followed because is was made a law, and has only been mentioned once referencing privacy in your own home.
This comic is jokingly stating the 3rd amendment, since this one isn't necessarily a huge concern in today's age, this is just a good image to help remember what the amendment is about.
