Communismwasviewedas beingverymuchagainstcore Americanbeliefsaboutthe governmentandeconomy. The U.S. government reacted harshly against anyone suspected of communist/anarchist activity. A. Mitchell Palmer, the Attorney General, believed that many strikes that were occuring in the early 1920s were being sponsored by communists. In 1920, the "Palmer Raids" were conducted to arrest hundreds of "identified" communists/socialists. The Red Scare may have also played a role in the trial of Sacco and Vanzetti. These two Italian immigrats were arrested on murder charges. Many believe they were arrested because of their "radical" beliefs and not because there was strong evidence that they committed the crime. Nonetheless, they were both found guilty of murder and sentenced to dearth.
