Thoreau Questions #1-4 and 7

1. Your personal beliefs.
2. Non-violently protest it by no taking part in whatever the law says. 
3. People either serve with their bodies, their head, or their conscience. He believed in serving with their conscience. 
4. It wouldn't be easier to be a nonconformist because the government is more thorough with their punishment and you can't get away with as much.  

7. I think he is a patriot, not a traitor, because he is only trying to tell the government what he thinks it right, and it's the government's job to make sure that most people are happy, and they can't do that unless citizens tell them, in a nonviolent manner. Thoreau believes government is a necessity, but he just wanted to see unjust laws changed.
