They believe civil liberties should be sacrificed because they want to protect themselves from dangers associated with them.
Some people believe that having unlimited freedoms is not necessary and very dangerous to their own and their country's security. Unlimited freedom of speech, press and expression means that many terrorists for example are not being punished for expressing their views, which may be considered a security threat. The same applies to freedom of assembly which can create meeting points of potentially dangerous terror or crime organizations.
The right to protect themselves against unreasonable search and seizure is seen by many as a basic right, it is however, considered unnecessary by others. Searching a suspects's bag may produce evidence against him, and again, proof the fact that some people need to be controlled more.
Civil liberties are questions especially during times of domestic or international tensions, as for example in the aftermath of the 9/11 terror attacks.
A series of four acts, the Townshend Acts were passed by the British Parliament in an attempt to assert what it considered to be its historic right to exert authority over the colonies through suspension of a recalcitrant representative assembly and through strict provisions for the collection of revenue duties. The acts were resisted everywhere with verbal agitation and physical violence, deliberate evasion of duties, renewed nonimportation agreements among merchants, and overt acts of hostility toward British enforcement agents, especially in Boston. In response, in October 1768, Parliament dispatched two regiments of the British army to Boston.

Answer:
Thomas Malthus.
Explanation:
Thomas Malthus was the person that affected and influenced Sir Charles Trevelyan's ideas about government intervention.
This is because, Sir Charles was a British official who was faced with the problem of scarcity of potato and Great famine in 1840 and his decision not to help the Irish was probably because of what was taught to him by his professor Thomas Malthus.
Thomas Malthus taught in his theory of population that population would increase while available food would not increase in the same manner and would cause large scale shortage.
