US civil librities

The United States has worked hard over the last 100 years to make America what it is today. As citizens we have many civil rights and liberties, and I do not think that during times of war any of these should be taken away. News papers should have the right to print what is actually going on with the war. Also peoplel should always be free to state what they want without being worried of going to jail for it. If we were to loose these during times of war it would no longer be a free country. America should always be free no matter what the circumstances are.
