When Pete Seeger appeared before the House Committee on Un-American Activities in 1955, he refused to answer the committee's questions about personal beliefs based on the First Amendment, which guarantees freedom of speech.

During the Cold War Era, The House Committee on Un-American Activities interrogated more than 3000 government officials, teachers, labor union leaders, artists and other people trying to purgue Communist ideas in America. Seeger refused to invoke the Fifth Amentment, which protects citizens from self-incrimination. Instead, he invoked the First Amendment and insisted that the Committee had no right to question him on his ideas or associations.

Do you think Hammurabi code was too severe? why or why not ( write one paragraph state your opinion and provide three reasons )
taurus [48]
I think some parts of Hammurabi's code were too severe. I believe this because sometimes it affected innocent people. Some occasions of this are when a man's son is killed because of the father building something faulty. Sometimes it is fair though such as when a man who is too lazy to fix his dam causes it to flood and he has to pay for the crops lost in the flood.
