The document discusses the purpose and history of the Fourth Amendment. The Fourth Amendment prohibits unreasonable searches and seizures by the government and requires warrants be based on probable cause. It originally only applied to the federal government but has since been incorporated to also apply to state and local governments. The Fourth Amendment aims to prevent general warrants that do not specifically describe the location and items to be searched or seized.
