Question

The document in question upon its first printed side recited the first section of the Thirteenth Amendment, said that the idea embodied in it was violated by the conscription act and that a conscript is little better than a convict. In impassioned language it intimated that conscription was despotism in its worst form and a monstrous wrong against humanity in the interest of Wall Street's chosen few. It said, 'Do not submit to intimidation,' but in form at least confined itself to peaceful measures such as a petition for the repeal of the act. The other and later printed side of the sheet was headed 'Assert Your Rights.' It stated reasons for alleging that any one violated the Constitution when he refused to recognize 'your right to assert your opposition to the draft,' and went on, 'If you do not assert and support your rights, you are helping to deny or disparage rights which it is the solemn duty of all citizens and residents of the United States to retain.' It described the arguments on the other side as coming from cunning politicians and a mercenary capitalist press, and even silent consent to the conscription law as helping to support an infamous conspiracy. Which of following describes an intended outcome of the protest document? To deny or disparage rights To violate the Thirteenth Amendment To repeal of the conscription act To submit to intimidation

Answer 1

Answer:

To repeal the Conscription Act.

Explanation:

From this passage, we can infer rightly what the actual intent of the protest document was. The fliers was to stimulate men not to be in support and to kick against the draft.

It's main purpose or belief was that conscription was not in accordance with the Thirteenth Amendment as it was in the real intent to be a kind of involuntary servitude.

It also address the fact that, if people did not kick against the draft, they were permitting and selling out the rights of all Americans, causing their rights to be impacted negatively and to be weakened.
