This sentence reads like satire. This should be funny, but it's disgusting.
I could argue the same for the current occupant of the White House.
I don’t see what difference it makes whether it’s a new sentence or not.
(A) We hold these truths to be self-evident,
(B) that all men are created equal,
(C) that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights,
(D) that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.
(E) —That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed,
(F) —That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.
Whether or not Clause (E) is subordinate to clause (D), they are both still subordinate to clause (A).
Sorry it won’t work, its a period, period!
If it looks like a period ad walks like a period, its a period.
While pointing out a possible, and not at all probable, as it is meant to afford further intrusion on citizens, error in the most important document in history outside of the Bible is typical of non-journalist’s journalism where no one proof reads their work: “A professor at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton argues the period is nothing (more?) than an errant ink stain and shouldn’t be there.”
Parentheses mine.
