As a result of Shay's rebellion, a number of people, who had
previously opposed the idea, came over to the side that that the
United States needed a different type of government from the
Articles of Confederation. As a result they went along with the
idea for a Constitutional Convention. The constitutional convention
decided they needed a way for the National Government to act
against a rebellion when congress was not in session. Congress had
not been in session during Shay's Rebellion and no one could
authorize national military action against the rebellion. As a
result they made the President the Commander in Chief of the
Military Forces. The President would always be on duty. He could
always take action.
shays' rebellion? it showed the people that the us govt was willing
to use force when necessary to keep peace and 2 protect the
constitution. it also showed that if citizens wanted 2 change a
law, they had to do so peaceful. I hope this helps.
It was the "Palmer Raids" that searched suspected Communists' houses without search warrants, although it should be noted that this applied to a variety of far-left groups, not just communists.
