Answer:
According to the Second Amendment, all US citzens were allowed to bear and keep arms. It is not clear whether that provided the right to individual self-defense or to state militias.
Explanation:
The Second Amendment of the Constitution that was adopted in 1791 was meant to provide a check on congressional power and the federal government under Article I Section 8. This is the section of the Amendment that addresses the rights of the individual to organize, arm and discipline the federal militia. This amendment is controversial in modern society today because some people interpret it as the Constitutional defense for an individual to bear arms. It is an important part of the controversy over gun control in the United States.
There is some disagreement about the extent to which this right was applicable because the Second Amendment reads "A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed." There are therefore some who say that the right to bear arms is only in the context of militias needed to defend the rights of the state.
DURING WORLD WAR I:
War tends to disrupt traditional norms surrounding gender and sexuality, and the First World War between 1914-1918 was no exception. Keep in mind, the U.S. did not become involved in the war until 1917.
During World War I, many women entered the workforce for the first time. With significant numbers of men away in Europe, women were needed in various capacities. It is believed over 20,000 women worked as nurses during the war. Others worked in clerical positions for the U.S. Government. Telephone and radio operators were also common positions for women.
On the home front, women assumed greater responsibility in public life as significant portions of the male population were 'over there' (as Europe was referred to during that time). Women too young or unable to work helped the war effort in various ways, such as planting 'victory' gardens.
Truman's loyalty plan was to ferret out Communist in every place in American Society, It included the media, government, and business. In the long run it was seen as the red scare. There was a Communist everywhere, and they where no tAmerican. lol I just learned that yesterday.
