Answer:

He disagreed with the government's actions.

He was of the opinion that every citizen has the right to protest against the unjust laws. Thoreau was a strong believer of his conscience. He gave it more priority than following the laws blindly. According to him, the responsibility of the citizens is more towards disobeying the laws that are unjust and mean.
