<span>King responded to suggestion that the Birmingham protests were untimely by stating that Albert Boutwell was not different enough to warrant patience. He further states that privileged groups are always certain to oppose any action that threatens the status quo. King justified his actions by stating that an individual has the right to reject unjust laws, and that the black community had waited more than 340 years for justice.</span>

I would respond to the claim that the protests were untimely by stating that the speed at which negotiations were moving only extended the suffering period of the black community. The continued election of racist leaders only made patience an unnecessary virtue.

King discredited the law because the majority forces the minority to adhere to it while not following it as required. He states that the laws are both unjust and undemocratic to minorities rendering courtrooms and negotiationsuseless in the struggle against segregation.

Why do presidential powers tend to grow during national emergencies? A) the President has veto power over Congress B) the Federa
anastassius [24]
B: The Federal Government needs to respond quickly.

Congress needs to go through a long and careful process to get things done, not to mention them needing to have the majority of congress agree.

The president/executive branch of the government is made up of much less people, as well as the president himself being commander and chief of the military.

Time is very important during a national emergency, and the president can get things done quickly.

Hope this helps.

finlep [7]
The united states entered the war because Germany was using submarines to sink our trading ships, they also sunk a passenger ship called the Lustitania, which killed many civilians. Another reason they entered war was because Germany sent  the Zimmerman telegram that they sent to Mexico to try to have them enter the war against us. The telegram said that if they helped Germany, Germany would help them get land back that they lost during the <span>Mexican–American War</span>.
