Interesting read! One question.
Do you have any cites to further reading on this? The 3rd is basically never litigated, so there are basically no briefs that I'm aware of saying, "Here's what we think the original meaning is." Is there an interesting law review article somewhere? A historian somewhere? I'd love to nerd out on it.
Same here.
My understanding of the 3rd is that the objections stem from, you know, having a squad of rough ‘n tough men hanging out with your silver and your women. See here.
The Quartering Acts were an obvious proximate cause. I don’t see anything there about intelligence.
