The 3rd is outdated (the US army has very expensive military bases), 4th is clearly attacked through mass surveillance and border searched, 5th is invalidated by civil forfeiture (which arguably violates the "just" terms), 6th is partially invalidated because of how overworked courts are and the existence of secret courts invalidates public trials, 7th is somewhat outdated because ignores inflation and thus further overworks the courts (requiring 6-member jury trials for all civil suits over $20), 8th is blatantly disregarded by many courts who routinely place excessive bail (hence the need for bail bonds) and cruel and unusual punishments are inflicted in prisons all the time.
Depending on your political view you can argue whether or not the 9th and 10th amendments are being attacked by overzealous government. But at the very least, it's in dispute.
I don't care what century I live in, I'd rather have the military living in bases than my house.
The 3rd amendment has never been used in any Supreme Court decisions, and in fact has only ever been used in a single appeals case in 1982[1] (thus there is only one instance of precedence for this amendment -- not to mention that the judge and appeals judge already accepted the Petitioners' argument under the 14th amendment).
I think that a part of the constitution that has only ever been used once, and was based primarily of a fear of a repeat of one of the Intolerable Acts in the 18th Century is hardly a relevant amendment.
