Answer:

Explanation:

I tend to side with those who think civil liberties are extremely important; they are almost written in stone. They were put in the constitution to protect citizens from governments misusing their power. The government is so much more power than any one person and perhaps any one group. Moreover, they make the laws. The Bill of Rights (the first 10 amendments) are meant to make sure citizens at least have the opportunity to exercise those rights.

However there are times when the rights go a little to far. Numerous times since 1968, introduced various proposals that attempted to protect the rights of the American Flag. On those occasions either congress or the Supreme Court protected the individual by saying burning the flag comes under the First Amendment -- freedom of expression.

My own opinion is that many people have died defending the flag. I don't know that free speech is more powerful than the right to burn a sacred symbol. I think there are limits to free speech.

According to Julissa Arce in You Sound Like A White Girl, the danger of assimilation is that ?
alex41 [277]

a danger of assimilation is that Assimilation forces us to erase or hide who we really are and chase an illusion of success.

<h3>why can assimilation be negative?</h3><h3 />

assimilation means that a person is being indoctrinated and accepted by another culture that is not their original culture.

this can be negative because it often leads to the person erasing or hiding their original culture and who they are in order to fit into the cultural requirements of their adopted culture.

Select the powers of the federal branch of government granted under the Constitution.
Allushta [10]
All of the options listed are powers of the federal branch of government, granted under the Constitution, except "regulate elections," and "set up town governments," since regulating elections is mostly up to the state (although the federal government can technically intervene) and setting up town governments is a local issue.
