1. It doesn't do anything. If officers are not going to respect the constitution they are not going to respect the wording of the amendment. (I believe most officers respect the constitution)
2. Including this amendment is punishing the child before its done anything wrong. If we see that officers are not respecting the constitution we have several avenues to address it including the next session.
But, now is not the time for arguing what should have been. It is a time to enjoy an historic moment.
