<span>Great Britain, during the early 19th century, enacted strong anti slavery laws and enforced them in their role as the world's superpower. This came about during the early Victorian era as morality became a key issue in government a public revulsion towards the construct of slavery became common. Military intervention was taken against the muslim countries of North Africa who were the main perveyors of the slave trade. Naval intervention in the Atlantic also served to reduce the flow of slaves to the US and and also served to influence public opinion in the US against slavery, eventually becoming a factor in the US civil war of 1861-1865 and the emancipation of existing slaves and the outlawing of the institution of slavery.</span>
The Miranda warning is a statement that police is requires to give to criminal suspects in police custody. This warning advises them of their right to remain silent and their right to refuse to answer questions.
Opponents of this practice argue that by having this process in place, police investigations can sometimes be undermined. I, however, believe that this should not outweigh the protection of individual rights. If the police is properly trained, there is no reason why they would not be able to find the information they need despite the warning, and despite the person's right to remain silent. Moreover, it is important to protect this right for the accused person as well, as it makes it more likely for him or her to have a fair trial.
