CGSA Reign of Terror by Pontus Hiort https://padlet.com/phiort1_1/wp14g1zko3h8 en-us 2018-10-09 00:27:45 UTC 2018-10-09 16:20:16 UTC hello@padlet.com Cameron Tierney https://padlet.com/phiort1_1/wp14g1zko3h8/wish/290839004 1st law
1.  I believe the goal was to figure out who was against the revolution and might still support the king and go against the new government.
2. I assume it accomplished its goal because it would be pretty easy to look at things people have written and trace it back to them also their friends, neighbors, etc. would be scared of getting thrown in jail or killed so they would just turn them in.
3. The drawbacks are that since everyone is scared of getting thrown in jail they aren't trying to fix problems with the government and adjusting it to what works best for the people.
4. I don't think it's right for them to monitor us because it takes away our privacy. If someone has been accused of a crime and there is a need for further proof, then yes it is ok, but most people are innocent and haven't ever done something that would require that.]]> 2018-10-09 16:05:50 UTC https://padlet.com/phiort1_1/wp14g1zko3h8/wish/290839004 Anna https://padlet.com/phiort1_1/wp14g1zko3h8/wish/290839027 1. the goal of the decree was to keep the people under control and to make sure that they everyone had a great level of respect for the ruler and what they say and do. Also to stop any enemies of the revolution from getting to much power.
2. I think that it some what did but I also think that it was the reason for their new and improved government to fail and cause much pain.
3. A draw back would be that the people were to scared to speak about what they saw that was wrong or harmful. It caused people to lose their trust in the government that they were doing all that they could to make the people's lives better.
4. I don't think that todays government should be able to watch everything that we don and look up on our phones. Sometimes you are having a privet conversation that you don't want anyone to know about but the government could just look right on it. I think that they should be able to look in on our phones but only if they believe that we have done something wrong and this is the only way to find the prof that they did it. But I think that before they just go and look on the persons phone they should have permission from a higher power. Also they should only be able to look at specifically what they said that they would or could be able to look at. But at the same time i think that they should not be able to look in on our phone because they are invading our personal items and they could cause problems for someone or they could complete ruin and innocent persons life]]> 2018-10-09 16:05:51 UTC https://padlet.com/phiort1_1/wp14g1zko3h8/wish/290839027 Zoe A https://padlet.com/phiort1_1/wp14g1zko3h8/wish/290839130 1. The goal of this decree was to keep every suspect watched to make sure that no one was going against the ruler. This was so the country wouldn't have any rioting or disagreement, and everyone would stay in their place and agree with Robbespierre.
2. No, this did not accomplish a goal, because it just made people more angry and want to start wars more often. 
3. Drawbacks to this decree are that people are afraid to share their opinions, and people who believe the king is not worthy can ban together and assassinate the ruler. 
4. I think the government should be required to check personal items of past criminals just to keep the town safe, and make sure they will not commit the crime again. Until you have committed a crime, the government should not have access to your personal belongings. Individuals should be trusted until proven untrustworthy, and that is when their personal belongings can be monitored and checked

2.No, this decree did not do what it attended to do which was to control the people and get rid of those who do not add or agree with the government. Instead it caused people to revolt and go against the government even more. This decree pretty much led to the killing of Robspierre because they disliked him and his rules so much.
3. This law created fighting and distrust between the people. There was no way to see if the government was improving or working. ]]> 2018-10-09 16:06:03 UTC https://padlet.com/phiort1_1/wp14g1zko3h8/wish/290839171 Sophie https://padlet.com/phiort1_1/wp14g1zko3h8/wish/290839172 1. I think the goal of the decree was to  almost to make an almost perfect society where everyone followed all the rules and did everything according to Robespierre. I think this because if you have every single person following the rules and not disrespecting Robespierre then no one could over throw him.

2. I think it somewhat did, but it also didn't because Robespierre was assassinated (overthrown)

3.I think some of the draw backs to this decree was that it was hard to follow all of the rules, because at some point you could slip up and someone could say something about it and all of a sudden you're executed. 

4. I don't think that our government today has the right to monitor us because we are haven't done anything to make them suspicious, so why would they have to monitor us especially on something like a cellphone where people are spending more and more of their time on it. ]]> 2018-10-09 16:06:03 UTC https://padlet.com/phiort1_1/wp14g1zko3h8/wish/290839172 Leighton https://padlet.com/phiort1_1/wp14g1zko3h8/wish/290839208 - the goal of this decree was to have everyone have a mutual respect for their ruler and that no one would act out or disagree with the ruler
- I do not think that this decree accomplished it's goal, because it is difficult in society to have everyone conform to one idea, so there were many people that rebelled. 
- some drawbacks to this decree might be the lack of freedom of speech, so there were limited opportunities for free-thinking, which could limit the creativity and innovation in society
- I don't think so, because an individual should have the right to be free in what they do on their own personal devices, and if they haven't done something wrong, there shouldn't be a reason for them to be monitored.

The goal of this decree was to place anyone who was against the ruler into custody. They wanted to make sure that everyone was devoted to Robespierre and under control. 
2. I don't think that this decree would have worked out because people would have ended up rebelling and going against this system or each other. It would have led to fights and revolts breaking out. 
3. I think some of the drawbacks would have been people living in fear of speaking out and sharing their opinions, which would lead to an unoriginal and bland society. 
4. I don't think that the government should be allowed to monitor activities because that takes away our freedom. Maybe if that person is suspected of a crime or in some kind of trouble then they should be able to check what they have been doing online, but for no other reasons. ]]> 2018-10-09 16:06:16 UTC https://padlet.com/phiort1_1/wp14g1zko3h8/wish/290839313 Margaret White https://padlet.com/phiort1_1/wp14g1zko3h8/wish/290839315
  • The goal of this decree was to keep the people in fear so that they would follow all these rules. 
  • I think this decree would certainly work for a little while, keeping all the people under these strict rules, in fear of speaking up or stepping out of line and getting executed. But, after a while the people are sure to get tired of this decree because they can't do anything without fearing the consequences and start a revolt against it. 
  • One of the drawbacks to this decree is that people could get in arguments and abuse these rules to have the person they were in an argument with executed. This would tear the French people apart. 
  • I think that if someone had had no criminal records or any reason to commit a crime, the government should not monitor that person. However, if someone does have a criminal record or a reason to commit a crime, the government should look into that person's life in order to make sure the city will be kept safe. I think people should be trusted by the government until they show the government a reason to think that they are going to commit a crime.

The goal of the decree was to force the people to follow all of the Convention's rules as well as be a united front because they must be devoted to these laws at all times. 
    2. No, I do not think the decree accomplished its goals because it ended up tearing the community apart and diminishing the trust between the people. It also was taken advantage of and was not followed properly. 
    3. One drawback, was the informality of the decree. It relied on opinions and personal sightings which led to lies being told and false accusations. The decree also caused many unnecessary deaths. 
    4. No, I do not think the government should be allowed to monitor our electronics unless someone has a criminal background or is suspected to be involved in illegal activity. I do believe that they should be allowed to use your records and information from the past if an unlawful act is committed. ]]>     2018-10-09 16:06:28 UTC https://padlet.com/phiort1_1/wp14g1zko3h8/wish/290839447     Annie E https://padlet.com/phiort1_1/wp14g1zko3h8/wish/290839577 1. The goal of the decree was made to keep everyone under control under the one ruler. 
    2. In some way I think that the decree accomplished its goal because it kept the people under control, but soon people started taking advantage of the decree and used it for revenge against other people, causing innocent people to die. 
    3. Some drawbacks of this decree were probably that some people were using it for advantage and also people were most likely afraid to speak up in what they believed because they were afraid they would become in trouble. This was taking away their freedom of speech. 
    4. I think that the government does have the right to have the right to monitor the things that we do because if they did not people would not be under control, but I do not think that any activities should be monitored that would take away our rights. ]]>     2018-10-09 16:06:41 UTC https://padlet.com/phiort1_1/wp14g1zko3h8/wish/290839577     Sophia https://padlet.com/phiort1_1/wp14g1zko3h8/wish/290839616 1.  The goal of this decree was to minimize wrong actions and to maintain power and control. 
    2. To an extent this decree accomplished its goal. It kept others from going against the law, until they began to abuse the power they almost had (meaning they lost so much power and freedom but in a way gained power because they could theoretically get anyone in trouble). It's difficult to maintain power when you have so many people with so many differing opinions and needs. 
    3. The drawbacks to this decree is that it forced others to conform to the society in which they lived. They did not have a choice to express their own opinions or to disagree.  If they did decide to openly speak out about their opinion, it would lead to execution. 
    4. I do not think the government should have to right to actively monitor what I do on the internet, unless it is affecting someone in a harmful way. We have a right to our privacy and shouldn't be monitored. That is not to say we NEVER should be monitored because one thing harmless that we do on our phone could lead to illegal or suspicious activity. Then, the government looking into our history is excused because we have broken the law. But, nobody should be actively monitoring. ]]>     2018-10-09 16:06:44 UTC https://padlet.com/phiort1_1/wp14g1zko3h8/wish/290839616     Kylie https://padlet.com/phiort1_1/wp14g1zko3h8/wish/290839671 1. The goal this decree was to keep everyone under control and to make sure they didn't go against the Republic. Even though it made matters worse to the ruler this was an easy way to make sure everyone respected him. 
    2. I think to some extent it accomplished its goal but because so many people disobeyed these laws and so many people were mad it failed in the sense that this was a stable form of government. This system was extremely corrupt and caused a lot of deaths.
    3.If this form of government continued all of France would have eventually been killed off just because of the amount of people breaking these rules. I feel like they needed to be less strict and a little more general  therefore not as many people would have died. 
    4. I don't think there is anything wrong with that just as long as the information isn't leaked or used against you by the government or police force (unless what they found was of course a danger to others). It would be unjust to use this information about someone as a bias opinion or unprofessional manner. However it would be easier to spot a criminal if they had this sort of information. I just think the information should'mt be shared. ]]>     2018-10-09 16:06:50 UTC https://padlet.com/phiort1_1/wp14g1zko3h8/wish/290839671     Kate Little https://padlet.com/phiort1_1/wp14g1zko3h8/wish/290839731
  • The goal of the decree was so that Robespierre could keep all of the citizens under control.   
  • No, I do not think that the decree accomplished it's goal because it tore apart the community and made everyone turn on each other. This decree was expecting that everyone would just go along with it and not have their own opinions. Because if this the citizens rebelled.
  • I think that a big drawback of this decree was the lack of freedom of speech. This decree made it almost completely impossible for anyone to speak their mind. Therefore no one could truly be honest and tell their full opinion in fear that they may be brought to jail a executed.
  • Personally, I do not think that the government has any right to monitor anything and everything that I do on my phone or any of my personal devices. It is my personal life and I do not want it leaked or shared with anyone without me knowing about it. I wouldn't do anything illegal but it gives me a bad feeling that someone is always watching everything that I do, watch, or listen to.

The goal of this decree was to gain control of the people in the country and what they were allowed to think and say, Robespierre made sure that everyone was loyal (or seemed loyal) to him. 
    2. No, I don't because people could have easily turned on each other in revenge or simply corrupt motives.
    3. Some draw backs were that people weren't given freedom of speech. Which meant that they never really had any of their own opinions on anything. It also tore the community apart because it gave people power over their neighbors,  if they chose to use it as such.
    4. I think they do to a certain extent. For example, I think the main focus should be illegal activity, instead of gaining all the information possible on a single indiv]]>     2018-10-09 16:08:06 UTC https://padlet.com/phiort1_1/wp14g1zko3h8/wish/290840404     Brookie https://padlet.com/phiort1_1/wp14g1zko3h8/wish/290840419 1. I think the goal was to get rid of anyone who was a threat to the government.
    2. Yes and no because I think they easily got rid of all of their non-believers but I also think they got rid of innocent people, and killed more innocent people than non-innocent. 
    3. I think one drawback was that their king became a dictator and he even threatened to kill his people if they said a single thing they did not like about him.  
    4.Yes and no because people have the right to have their own privacy and when the goveernment checks your phone they do not respect that. But when checking people's phones the government may catch illegal activity that may risk someone else's life, and that is more important than someone's privacy.

    2. I don't think this decree accomplished it goal because it's very hard to govern a giant society and make them follow this belief. Although there are always outliers who rebel this idea and misused it. The trust in the community was weakening. This idea was also harsh which helped to begin with, but the society figured out how to handle this situation.

    3. The cons of this idea is that people put their life on the line due to their words. It limits their freedom of speech by being afraid to speak. The thought of sharing your opinion and being penalized for it is cruel. 

    4. I don't think they should because they are invading one's privacy. Especially if someone hasn't done anything wrong it enforces the idea that the government shouldn't have access to your devices. If someone is accountable for a crime their devices should be check but otherwise they shouldn't be touched. ]]>     2018-10-09 16:08:19 UTC https://padlet.com/phiort1_1/wp14g1zko3h8/wish/290840531     Rebecca Simkin https://padlet.com/phiort1_1/wp14g1zko3h8/wish/290841013 1. the goal of this decree was to enforce Robespierre's dominance
    2. Yes it drove the people into mass panic, driving them to turn on neighbors
    3. widespread panic, a lack of productive work on the current government
    4. I do not love the extent of control that the government has over our devices. This said, in many law enforcement cases the ability to access a person's technological records has been a productive source of information. I think that so long as the government employees recognize privacy, records and monitors have a place in our lives.

    The goal of the decree may have been to watch over the society and make sure everyone is controlled over completely. 

    2. Do you think this decree accomplished its goal? Why or why not?
    I don't think so because it is impossible to control every single person in a huge society and know their every move. 

    3. Can you think of any drawbacks to this decree?
    Drawbacks to this decree are that people are afraid to share their opinions, if and people who believe the king is not worthy can come together and assassinate the ruler. Also, they cannot say anything if something is going wrong. People can also use it to their advantage for revenge .

    4. Do you think that your government today has a right to monitor your activities (for instance cell phone use) even if you have not done anything illegal? Why? Why not?
    I think the government should be required to check personal items of past criminals just to keep the town safe, and make sure they will not commit the crime again. Even if you have not committed a crime, you may be an unknown criminal or be planning to do something bad. Keeping people safe is worth a little inconvenience from time to time.
