Answer:  refusing to ratify a treaty

The main reason for refusing to ratify the Treaty of Versailles was it would mean the US would enter into the League of Nations.  Senators believed  that doing so meant giving up some of the United States' own sovereignty and could commit the US to defend other nations' security rather than its own.

The United States never joined the League of Nations, in spite of the fact that an organization such as the League of Nations was the signature idea of US President Woodrow Wilson.  He had laid out 14 Points for establishing and maintaining world peace following the Great War (World War I).  Point #14 was the establishment of an international peacekeeping association. The Treaty of Versailles adopted that idea, but back home in the United States, there was not support for involving America in any association that could diminish US sovereignty over its own affairs or involve the US again in wars beyond those pertinent to the United States' own national security.   Because of its objections to membership in the League of Nations, the United States Senate refused to ratify the Treaty of Versailles.

Greeley [361]

Answer:

Explanation:

1. The Arizona Leathernecks is a Motorcycle Club formed in 2000 by exmarines who share a bond forged by a love for their Marine Corps, families, brotherhood, and their love of riding motorcycles. They believe themselves to be the defenders of the constitution and as such honor the ideals of democracy, fairness, faith, and freedom. They believe that these values along with the basic concept of right and wrong are the cornerstones in building Marines and it is these concepts and values that their members are held to, and that serve as the core of their clubs beliefs and By-Laws.

2. Federalists argued that the Constitution did not need a bill of rights, because the people and the states kept any powers not given to the federal government. Anti-Federalists held that a bill of rights was necessary to safeguard individual liberty.

3. Patrick Henry

4. The Bill of Rights consists of 10 amendments that explicitly guarantee certain rights and protections to US citizens by limiting the power of the federal government. The First Amendment prevents the government from interfering with the freedoms of speech, peaceable assembly, and exercise of religion.

5. In July 2005, the Westboro Baptist Church declared its intention to protest at the memorial service of Carrie French in Boise, Idaho. The U.S. Supreme Court ruled that hate speech is legally protected free speech under the First Amendment, hence, hate speech is not regulated due to the robust right to free speech found in the American Constitution.

6. Brandeis reasoned that the rights of free speech and assembly are fundamental, yet they are not absolute. Their exercise is subject to restriction when free speech would produce, or is intented to produce, a clear imminent danger of some substantive evil to the society.

7. Gideon was charged with breaking and entering with the intent to commit a misdemeanor, which is a felony under Florida law. At trial, Gideon appeared in court without an attorney. In open court, he asked the judge to appoint counsel for him because he could not afford an attorney. The trial judge denied Gideon’s request because Florida law only permitted appointment of counsel for poor defendants charged with capital offenses.

8. After the Miranda decision, the nation's police departments were required to inform arrested persons or suspects of their rights prior to custodial interrogation. Such information is called a Miranda warning.

9. Jessica Ahlquist an activist and public speaker filed a lawsuit in 2012 against Cranston High School West, where she was a student, to remove a religious prayer from its auditorium.

10. Thomas Jefferson

11. The First Amendment has two provisions concerning religion: the Establishment Clause and the Free Exercise Clause. The Establishment clause prohibits the government from "establishing" a religion. The Free Exercise Clause protects citizens' right to practice their religion as they please, so long as the practice does not run afoul of a "public morals" or a "compelling" governmental interest.
