The answer is yes.

<em>The USA PATRIOT Act</em> is an act of Congress signed into law by President Georg Bush on October 26, 2001. Its full title is : 'Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism Act of 2001'. The goal of this act was to strengthen national security after the September 11 attacks.

This acts is controversial because it violates some Amendments of the U.S. Constitution, especially the 4th and the 5th one.

<em>The 5th Amendment</em> states that no person should be ' deprived of life, liberty or property, without due process of law'. The Patriot act however, allows the Attorney General to hold a person ( especially a non-citizen or an alien) in detention indefinitely if he/she is a threat to the nation's security, even without a criminal conviction. This contradicts the 5th Amendment.

Answer: C. They declared that the colonies were in a state of rebellion.

Question: The first committee started in Charleston, South Carolina, and more were created in other colonies except New England.  When the Second Continental Congress created an official army, how did the British respond?

Explanation: In the 1770s, colonists had become dissatisfied with the British authorities due to severe taxes and lack of representation in the Parliament. In 1775, the second continental congress met and decided to go to war. They created an army under the command of George Washington.

Despite the vote passing, some members of the Congress did not like the idea of independence and worked to maintain good relations with King George III but by then the king had declared that the colonies were in a state of rebellion.
