Civil Liberties

I feel that we, as Americans, should be willing to give up our civil liberites in a time of war. Many of our civil liberties, such as freedom of speech, can produce negative opinions on war. Negativity will not help boost our troops morale. In a time of war, Americans must come together and support one another. Certain civil liberties can prevent Americans from uniting, and that could lead to the dividing of a nation.

My Quote

I chose the quote, "Knowledge speaks, but wisdom listens" which was said by Jimi Hendrix. This quote means that smart people can talk, but it takes a true intellectual to listen. I choes this because I thought it was very deep. Also, it was by Jimi Hendrix, and that made it even more appealing.
