Answer:

It stops them from going into your house wihtout a warrent and it also stops them from abusing others.

Step-by-step explanation:

The fourth amendment stops people from unlawful search, you need a warrent to do that. This limits their power and doesn't allow them to come into your house uninvited. The 14th amendment is giving citizenships and equal rights to African Americans. Before, they were beaten and hunted down like dogs by the police/people who captures runaway slaves without any consequences. They could beat any African American that they wanted, but now, the 14th amendment protects them.
