5. People who are a serious threat to the government should be able to be held in prison without being charged.-There are some sacrifices that are acceptable, and some that go too far. Our founding fathers founded this country hoping that our freedons & liberties would remain intact. Our founding fathers practiced Christianity on a basis of using the 10 commandments including commandment #9 Thou shall not falsly accuse.Therefore one should not be held in Prison if they are thought to be a threat becuase, one, many people have different opinions on who may or may not be a threat, and they may be falsly accused. One must have much evidence in order to accuse.Without evidence it is unethical to old someone in contempt.

I believe, unfortunately, exceptions must be made. In a case where a human threat to the government also considerably emperils public safety, paperwork can wait. This situation probably should never happen since a government can always accuse somebody of treason, and hold them for a little while without any evidence.
In general, however, there must be a charge, and the charged person can't be held indefinitely.
