Social Studies

notsponge [240]3 years ago
5 0

The correct answer is " cruel and unusual punishment."

Amendment VIII - Bail, Cruel and Unusual Punishment

Excessive bail shall not be required, nor excessive fines imposed, nor cruel and unusual punishments inflicted.

The Cruel and Unusual Punishments Clause is the most important and also the most controversial part of the Eighth Amendment.  

It is a mystery, after all what does it mean for a punishment to be cruel and unusual?  And how can we measure a punishment’s cruelty?

The Constitution is silent on what punishment is considered to be  cruel and unusual, it has been left for the courts to determine what is and what isn't permissible under the law.

What were Japanese Internment (Prison) camps REALLY like?
Sergio [31]

Answer:

The Camps were a difficult place to live because the Japanese Americans who lived there had to endure bad food, inadequate medical care, and poorly equipped schools.

People who lived in the camps had to share bathroom and laundry facilities, and hot water was usually limited. The camps were surrounded by barbed wire and guards who were supposed to shoot those who tried to escape.

  To summarize, the camps were not overly harsh or terrible, but it was unfair to force Japanese Americans to live in them when they had done nothing wrong, and when the living conditions at the camp were inadequate.

Please give me brainliest if I helped!
