Answer:

Neither side thought the war would last very long.

Explanation:

This was a basic strategical error based on an uncertain premise. This premise, which both sides seemed to have adopted as truthful, was that the war was not going to be very long, therefore those prisons would quickly fall in desuse, making the prisons unnecessary and unworthy of being well constructed because of it.

marusya05 [52]
It did in the long run. In the short run it created many issues because there was a rise in extremism, in southern states especially. For starters, racists didn't want to desegregate their schools and public places so they didn't enforce the decision of the court throughout the entire next decade. Another thing is that organizations that were illegal like the Ku Klux Klan started getting power and harassing innocent African-Americans. It did create a litigious environment however because suddenly there were many more cases regarding desegregation and they had the court's precedence support so they were easily won because of the way the legal system works. It didn't lack legal justification, the only problem was enforcing it before the civil rights acts were passed and the country started battling racism systematically in all of the United States.
