Civil Liberties

In my opinon, civil liberties should never be limited during a time of war. The United States was created so the citizens could have the independence and the freedom they were seeking for. The government did not allow the citizens to talk badly about the government or even their decisions for the war going on. Everyone should have the right to share their mind on how they feel about the government and war or anything for that matter. And by the government enforcing the Sedition Acts, it took away these rights, especially the Freedom of Speech. Everyone's rights should never be taken away unless with great reason. On the other hand, the government should not have to enforce loyalty because the citizens of their country should already be loyal to it. But civil liberties should never be limited because everyone deserves to share their opinions on how they feel about something that is effecting their lives.
