do you think that the fifth amendment is a good idea or a bad idea?

Question

please give me a reason for your response.

Answer 1

The Fifth Amendment to the United States Constitution :

No person shall be held to answer for a capital, or otherwise infamous crime, unless on a presentment or indictment of a Grand Jury, except in cases arising in the land or naval forces, or in the Militia, when in actual service in time of War or public danger; nor shall any person be subject for the same offense to be twice put in jeopardy of life or limb; nor shall be compelled in any criminal case to be a witness against himself, nor be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation.

I think it's pretty obvious to any thinking person that these are good ideas. Otherwise the government could abuse it's power.

Answer 2

Most of the time.
