By thousands, you mean 27? Two of those were for prohibition and to end prohibition.
And you completely missed the point. The constitution is not an untouchable holy grail. It's only a current modern guideline.

By that you mean it's the document we base our entire system of government on. The document that we have a whole branch of government to determine the constitutionality of every law passed. That constitution?
The thing that contains the Bill of Rights (which by the way, the 4th amendment is part of) which functions to assure all citizens certain fundamental rights?

You're getting it pretty good in this thread and I don't want to pile on...I'll just say this: the "they shouldn't have broken the law" line of thinking is very dangerous. I'm sure you're aware, and probably have seen, some really shady laws/acts be passed. Just something to keep in mind.
