Civil Rights Vs. Civil Liberties

Civil Rights or Civil Liberties
Civil liberties are more important than civil rights for these reasons. First, our lives are better when the government doesn’t interfere. Second, civil liberties protects us from our government from causing us harm and last civil liberties makes civil rights possible.
Our lives are better when the government doesn’t interfere because government shouldn’t get in the way of people’s daily lives, day after day. Let people be. We shouldn’t have to live with the mentally of the government being on our tail at all times. We should have peace of mind, especially when it comes to our privacy.
