What Constitution have you been reading? Does yours have a “break in case of emergency” (”emergency” defined however you please) clause?

The Constitution is way better than the puny Articles of Confederation.

Please, read Article 1, Section 9 of the great Constitution,

“The Privilege of the Writ of Habeas Corpus shall not be suspended, unless when in Cases of Rebellion or Invasion the public Safety may require it.”

Riots when we are in the middle of a war are rebellion and also treason since they have to send military power to put down the rioters while the troops simultaneously have to fight. That would also be public safety since rioters enjoy murdering people, stealing from people, destroying property, etc. so good luck trying to argue with Article 1 section 9, which justified Congress suppressing freedom. However, when it comes to fighting a war, that is neccessary. Plus we won when congress executed Article 1 section 9.
