On the cold, snowy night of March 5, 1770, a mob of angry colonists gathers at the Customs House in Boston and begins tossing snowballs and rocks at the lone British soldier guarding the building. The protesters opposed the occupation of their city by British troops, who were sent to Boston in 1768 to enforce unpopular taxation measures passed by a British parliament without direct American representation.

During World War II, the government argued that it should be able to waive the Fourteenth Amendment, claiming that the Constitution <em>did not apply during wartime. </em>
As a context, the 14th amendment adopted on July 9, 1868, as one of the Reconstruction Amendments, addressed citizens rights and equal protection of the laws. Since it was a later response to the American Civil War, the above rights also covered early freed slaves.
Back in the WWII, the 14th amendment was temporarily suppressed, thus disactivating its protection, back up by the claim that the Constitution did not apply.
An example of how personal liberty restrained was imposed, was the detention and relocation of the Japanese residents of the Western states, including those who were native-born citizens of the US.
Before the civil war cities were mainly industry based. Manufacturing goods was really the only thing that was done in cities.
