Unfortunately, our courts have a long history of supporting the executive and legislative branches in times of war in in the face of obviously unconstitutional laws or executive orders.
Ex parte Milligan
Not giving shelter to soldiers during Civil War
Korematsu v. United States, 323 U.S. 214 (1944)
Japanese internment during WWII
Schenck vs. United States
It involved the prosecution — there were more than 2,000 in the lower federal courts — of those who opposed our efforts in World War I and did such things as print brochures and newsletters encouraging resistance to the draft.
