How justified were Lincoln's wartime abridgements of civil liberties and his treatment of the Copperheads?
It is a slippery slope when civil liberties are curtailed to the extent they were under Lincoln during the Civil War. However, the Civil War was a highly unusual and troubling time in our history. Hindsight has shown that Lincoln's actions were heavy handed, but the result was a victory and preservation of the Union. His disregard for the Copperheads, who were Northern Democrats that did not want the Civil War, may have proven justified as some began speaking of taking violent resistance, furthering the feeling that they were traitorous. Had the North lost the war, Lincolns actions would have been a dark point in our history.
The government is justified in suppressing civil liberties during wartime?
This question has troubled humans since the Antiquity. Governments say yes, but citizens say no. At the end of the day, I believe that in wartime situations, certain civil liberties can be suppressed. The government has the duty to protect the well-being of all its citizens, and if the lives of millions are at stake, and the best chance at saving those lives are suppressing certain rights, than I feel the government is just in doing so.But it is important that once the immediate danger is past, liberties are restored. And if the government cannot do that in a timely matter, they are failing as a government and should be abolished, and a new government should be established. As the book 1984 showed, by keeping people in perpetual fear, the government can quash all civil liberties.
