irateplatypus, I don't see any way this right doesn't get incorporated in the fourteenth amendment and then applied against the states. What would the logic be to justify treating this amendment different from the first, fourth, fifth, sixth and eighth? Yes, the 7th isn't incorporated, but that's an anomaly. And the third isn't incorporated because it just never came up - soldiers haven't been quartered in homes since the founding, I think.
