Best Answer

The Latin phrase 'de facto' means 'in or according to fact'. The phrase 'de jure' means 'in or according to law'. In terms of government, a 'de jure' government describes a government that's recognized by and in accord with legal standards and systems. A 'de facto' government describes the government that actually is operating and being respected as the ruling body. Ideally, the two phrases describe the same government in the same area. For example, the Taliban became the 'de facto' and the 'de jure' government in much of Afghanistan for the time period 1996-2001. Prior to and since those years, the Taliban has been the 'de facto' but not the 'de jure' government in areas where its supporters, representatives and organizers hold power.

Some Americans have argued that arresting people who have done nothing more than criticize the government is unconstitutionally dangerous. How would you respond to this?

Criticizing the government is not a crime, and I have never seen an example (at least in modern times) of one being arrested for having an opinion on the government. So, in order for me to give anymore of a legitimate answer, you will have to provide me with an example of someone being arrested for nothing more than expressing their opinion.
