Blog #5 Summary

The first to post was Michelle Morris and she talked about the aftermath of 9/11 and that the country had nobody to trust after it. She points out that our nation used profiling to find would be terrorist that have intentions to hurt people within our country. Michelle points out also that many people a lot of people were not receiving there habeas corpus because of how the law was not simply broken. The second that posted was Casey Trask. Casey states that most people over in the other country have not done anything wrong and everyone still has rights no matter where they are. They also should have the right to a lawyer and know why they are being held for. She had one hyperlink and it was the U.S. Patriot Act on Wikipedia. Casey then talked about the video and how it was about the Patriot Act. The third that posted was Anna Harris. She agrees that we should do whatever it takes to keep this country safe. Also that people should be provided with a lawyer and a reason why they are being held also. She posted one hyperlink and it was the Wikipedia page of habeas corpus. Anna points out that this country is known for innocent until proven guilty.

I feel that this was an overall great posting week with many useful hyperlinks that explain the details behind everything that is mentioned in this blogs. Also that people should be given every right to a lawyer but it is not easy to do if they are not a United States Citizen. What happened on 9/11 was a tragedy that no one really expected to happen on United State’s soil.
