Half the country ...clearly half the country or more see it coming and we are helpless to stop it. Believe I wanted to write ‘act’ helpless instead not are helpless.

I consider often how my grandfather came here as an indentured plantar and his name, along with his two sons, fought for freedom from the British. Was it truly anymore awful, any more abuses, than what we have today?
But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.—Such has been the patient sufferance of these Colonies; and such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter their former Systems of Government.

Apathy or Necessity
