Answer:
because they were forced to help
Explanation:
The correct answer is A. Protection against unusual punishment and the right to trial by jury.
Explanation:
Both the US Bill of Rights and the English Bills of Rights guaranteed basic rights. The English Bill of Rights was approved in 1689, limited the power of monarchs, and provided citizens some protection; this included the right against unusual punishment, the right to be judged according to law, and the right to be represented.
On the other hand, the US Bill of Rights approved in 1789 defined government, and guaranteed rights to the citizens. This also included protection against unusual or cruel punishment and the right of a fair trial. Also, this document included other rights such as the right to bear arms and the protection against unfair seizures. Thus, the common rights in both documents are "Protection against unusual punishment and the right to trial by jury".
The answer is C. Federal law requiring states to assist in the capture and return of slaves. The contentiousness of the fugitive slave act in the Compromise of 1850, was an attempt to prolong the inevitable war that was coming. Emerson's revulsion to the act was made in the context of the fact the men making these decisions were not illiterate savages, but learned men who could read and write and supposedly knew what is was to be human and should have abhorred (hated) anything to do with slavery.
