He changed his vote because of a letter from his mother asking him to "be a good boy" and vote for the amendment.

Do you think the supreme court should have a police force with the power to enforce its decisions
egoroff_w [7]
No, the Supreme Court should not have a police force with the power to enforce its decisions. This is for a couple of reasons: with the Supreme Court being the highest court and one of the three branches of government, it already has a large amount of power and does not need more, there are jobs such as parole officers to look over the actions of criminals after court and the police force is sufficient enough to tackle any problems as many problems as it can with criminality.

During salutary neglect why did great britain not enforce its own laws on the colonies?
adell [148]

Answer:

The policy of 'Salutary Neglect' lasted from the early 1600's to the 1760's and avoided strict enforcement of parliamentary laws - British officials in the colonies were basically allowed to turn a 'blind eye' to trade violations - they neglected to enforce the law.
