7 0

The US Congress passed the <em>Preventive Detention act of 1984</em>. This allowed courts to detain people under the assumption that the government cannot assure the safety of the people and well being of the people in the community the accused individual lives.

This act was challenged in the US vs Salerno case. However, the Supreme Court concluded that there was no violation of the due process clause of the Fifth Amendment nor the excessive bail language of the 8th Amendment.

<em>This set the precedent that the Supreme Court was, in fact, regarding the Preventive Detention Act of 1984 as Constitutional.  </em>

How effective was the roving attack on the British after Concord?
Eva8 [605]

Answer:

For the British, 73 were killed, 174 were wounded, and 26 were missing. While the colonists lost many minutemen, the Battles of Lexington and Concord were considered a major military victory and displayed to the British and King George III that unjust behavior would not be tolerated in America.

Explanation:

The first battle of the war, Lexington marked the beginning of the American Revolution. Although Lexington and Concord were considered British military victories, they gave a moral boost to the American colonists. On the night of April 18, 1775, hundreds of British troops marched from Boston to nearby Concord in order to seize an arms cache. Paul Revere and other riders sounded the alarm, and colonial militiamen began mobilizing to intercept the Redcoat column.

Do you think Julius Cesar was good for Rome? Why.
11111nata11111 [884]

He was good for some Romans, but bad for others. The optimates who opposed him in the Civil Wars certainly held a negative view. The people generally loved him, but he made too many powerful enemies in the Senate. Caesar was a great general and an inspirational leader, but he proved to be a very naive politician.
