.Reflection- Should the U.S. limit civil liberties during wartime? By: Cam Hall

     The United States grants many civil liberties to its citizens. During wartime, individuals should have limits
be put upon their civil liberties. One reason why i say so is because without civil liberties, people will not be able to get through their lives very well. For example, people need the right to buy foods and other resources  to keep themselves content and happy. Another reason why is because by taking away the rights of the people, the U.S. will not live up to what it has always been known as for being a country. America is known as the land of the free, implying that people have the freedom to do whatever activities they want to do, and getting rid of this right would anger the people greatly. The U.S. should not have to enforce loyalty to itself among the citizens in its land. A major reason why is because the citizens of America praise the men and women who are in the navy and wave the America flag on small model poles above their heads, especially on the 4th of July. An individual always puts his or her right hand on his or her heart to pledge allegiance to  the U.S.A. and overall be happy to be an American. This has greatly explained the unnecessary idead to limit civil liberties and to enforce loyalty among the citizens of the U.S.A. during wartime, overall and finally.

Yellow Journalism- The Sinking of the U.S.S. Maine By: Cam Hall

          Spain says to America, "We didn't sink the U.S.S Maine," but is Spain really telling the truth.

     America is heart-broken over the sinking of the U.S.S Maine, a ship that held many of our beloved
citizens who suffered greatly. The U.S. is currently putting the blame on Spain, who we know for sure took
part in destroying the U.S.S. Maine. Spain is completely outraged over our beliefs and threatens to go to war
with us if we do not stop feeling as though they are responsible. The people who live in Spain have exhibited rude remarkes to the people of the U.S., including calling Mr. President by the name of Satin, and claiming his soul to be unholy. Americans are currently wanting a war to take place with Spain, saying that if we manage to conquer Spain, then the country itself will be eliminated of all of its evil people and we shall establish a new population there and make the land our own. Also, we have confirmed that the Spainsh people are holding several Americans for ransom and demand that we pay them a lot of money in order for their safety. We plan to trick the Spanish people into taking the money when all of our troops will be lurking nearby, ready to attack and bring them down. Now, we all need to work together to bring these awful people to an end once and for all. We encourage all Americans to "remember the Maine."
