He
has refused his assent to laws, the most wholesome and necessary for the public
good.
He
has forbidden his governors to pass laws of immediate and pressing importance,
unless suspended in their operation till his assent should be obtained; and
when so suspended, he has utterly neglected to attend to them.
He
has refused to pass other laws for the accommodation of large districts of
people, unless those people would relinquish the right of representation in the
legislature, a right inestimable to them and formidable to tyrants only.
He
has called together legislative bodies at places unusual, uncomfortable, and
distant from the depository of their public records, for the sole purpose of
fatiguing them into compliance with his measures.
He
has dissolved representative houses repeatedly, for opposing with manly
firmness his invasions on the rights of the people.
He
has refused for a long time, after such dissolutions, to cause others to be
elected; whereby the legislative powers, incapable of annihilation, have
returned to the people at large for their exercise; the state remaining in the
meantime exposed to all the dangers of invasion from without, and convulsions
within.
He
has endeavored to prevent the population of these states; for that purpose obstructing
the laws for naturalization of foreigners; refusing to pass others to encourage
their migration hither, and raising the conditions of new appropriations of
lands.
He
has obstructed the administration of justice, by refusing his assent to laws
for establishing judiciary powers.
He
has made judges dependent on his will alone, for the tenure of their offices,
and the amount and payment of their salaries.
He
has erected a multitude of new offices, and sent hither swarms of officers to
harass our people, and eat out their substance.
He
has kept among us, in times of peace, standing armies without the consent of
our legislature.
He
has affected to render the military independent of and superior to civil power.
He
has combined with others to subject us to a jurisdiction foreign to our
constitution, and unacknowledged by our laws; giving his assent to their acts
of pretended legislation:
For
quartering large bodies of armed troops among us:
For
protecting them, by mock trial, from punishment for any murders which they
should commit on the inhabitants of these states:
For
cutting off our trade with all parts of the world:
For
imposing taxes on us without our consent:
For
depriving us in many cases, of the benefits of trial by jury:
For
transporting us beyond seas to be tried for pretended offenses:
For
abolishing the free system of English laws in a neighboring province,
establishing therein an arbitrary government, and enlarging its boundaries so
as to render it at once an example and fit instrument for introducing the same
absolute rule in these colonies:
For
taking away our charters, abolishing our most valuable laws, and altering
fundamentally the forms of our governments:
For
suspending our own legislatures, and declaring themselves invested with power
to legislate for us in all cases whatsoever.
He
has abdicated government here, by declaring us out of his protection and waging
war against us.
He
has plundered our seas, ravaged our coasts, burned our towns, and destroyed the
lives of our people.
He
is at this time transporting large armies of foreign mercenaries to complete
the works of death, desolation and tyranny, already begun with circumstances of
cruelty and perfidy scarcely paralleled in the most barbarous ages, and totally
unworthy the head of a civilized nation.
He
has constrained our fellow citizens taken captive on the high seas to bear arms
against their country, to become the executioners of their friends and
brethren, or to fall themselves by their hands.
He
has excited domestic insurrections amongst us, and has endeavored to bring on
the inhabitants of our frontiers, the merciless Indian savages, whose known
rule of warfare, is undistinguished destruction of all ages, sexes and
conditions.

Often times too many too smart
too many are too selfish/prideful
too many seeking un-righteously
dominion, power, lusts, greed, wants
never thinking of others in any way
only for glamourizing themselves
pleasing themselves fully at all times
thus surrounded with the yes men
even women for many of them
who is he – we each might ask
starting with ourselves always
are we selfish or found selfless
then if found to be selfless why
and if the answer is true/righteous
looking around at those who destroy
denying others of their rights/needs
till found those too many/too smart
seeking unrighteous dominion
praying we are not found as one!
