The Patriot Act was not needed by the government and was overblown and misused more often than not.

Explanation:

The Patriot Act out of many unconstitutional things it does, violates the fourth amendment which protects the people against unwarranted searching without any proper reason.

The law that was passed in the aftermath of the 2001 attacks on  the World Trade Center came as US wanted to increase home security and wanted to crack down on terrorists.

However, this law made itself a safeguard of Xenophobia.

many people were taken into custody and prisoners by the look of their skin and often persecuted for a long time before being set free.

In spite of his victory, confederate president jefferson davis decided to replace general johnston with _______ on july 18.
Papessa [141]
President Davis replaced General Johnston with General John Bell Hood, because Hood is more aggressive than Johnston.  President Davis hoped that Hood can do more other than manage a fighting retreat.  However, General Hood had no time to organize and prepare his army to attack the Union forces at Peachtree Creek on July 20, when he assumed command.

What are making these Black Power groups so angry?
Elenna [48]

Answer:

For the first, I would say being poorly represented.

For the second, ignorance and morals.

Explanation:

A lot of people have been raised to demand a change when they see injustices, some might go at it in a violent way, others might approach it in a more peaceful way. One thing you have to know about making big decisions, is that you will never please everyone. Someone is always going to be mad. It depends on their moral values as people. If you saw something that you thought was morally wrong, you would be upset too. They have tried peaceful protests and weren't heard, now they choose to incite violence because they have a voice and are represented in the media that way.

It all leads down to morals. The media says that if you aren't for it, you're automatically against it. If something the media does or activists do doesn't allign with people's morals, they choose the complete opposite because they think that's their only option.
