Perhaps you should reread my post before you lose your temper. I specifically said (and I quote), The fourteenth is the only one that mentions a restriction on any type of government, specifically the state. The fifth mentions no type of government, but only the freedoms and rights that the federal government has been charged to protect." Don't get upset just because the English language can't be manipulated to suit your ends. It's just a fact. I'm simply an impartial observer. That you interpret it as condescending is indicative of the emotional stake you have, which is understandable.
Have you ever heard a murderer being charged and convicted of violating Fourteenth Amendment rights?
It hasn't been needed up until this point, as states have generally had laws against murder. Frankly, though, the dead aren't in any position to sue. I would consider it, however, if a family member in Oregon was put to death by a physician, and that physician was not held accountable by state or federal authorities. Part of the reason the fourteenth was worded the way it was is specifically because states weren't adequately protecting the rights of blacks according to the fifth amendment, as the ones habitually persecuting blacks fallaciously claimed the fifth amendment only applied to the authority of the federal government to infringe on those rights. The sitting Congress of the time disagreed, but wanted there to be no room for debate.
Are you now going to pretend the Fourth forbids burglary and since age is not mentioned a parent cant legally search their childs room or read their diary without first obtaining a search warrant?
Burglary is forbidden, and except for the income tax (another sore point), the states generally protect against it. As to the "child's room" argument, don't be silly. Of course the parent can search it unless the child has been granted autonomy from the parents through the usual, legal means. The room belongs to part of the house, which belongs to the parent, not the child. We seem to be veering off course. with these scenarios. How would you suggest we get back on track?
