When the Anglo-French war resumed in 1803, America was caught in between the two nations. They obviously wanted to trade with both sides and make profit. Then came the Chesapeake Incident in June of 1807. The Leopard (British ship) ordered a U.S. frigate (war ship) to let them search the ship. The commander of the Chesapeake refused, and the Leopard open fired, killing three Americans. US citizens wanted a war with Britain, but Jefferson believed that the country wasn't prepared and international law should settle issues between the U.S. and Britain. Hope this somewhat helps :)
