Why did President Truman call the McCarran Act "a mockery of the Bill of Rights"?

1. It banned certain types of speech and allowed certain people to be "detained" without a warrant.
2. It forced people to follow a specific religion and prohibited them from bearing arms.
3. It prohibited states from passing their own security laws.
4. It forced citizens to allow U.S. troops to set up command posts in their towns.

Answer:

The correct answer is option 1: It banned certain types of speech and allowed certain people to be detained without a warrant.

Step-by-step explanation:

Presiden Truman did not agree with the McCarran Act as it was a piece of legislation that was disriminatory against the communist and it was not a fair representation on what the Bill of Rights represented.
