In every stage of these Oppressions We have Petitioned for Redress in the most humble terms: Our repeated Petitions have been answered only by repeated injury. A Prince whose character is thus marked by every act which may define a Tyrant, is unfit to be the ruler of a free people. How do the authors of The Declaration support their premise?
a) The Founding Fathers state that they believe they are entitled to equal access to human rights as citizens of Great Britain and support that premise by listing the rights to which they would like access.
b) The Founding Fathers establish that the British Government has threatened their access to inalienable rights and support that premise with examples of how the King of Great Britain has proven himself a tyrant.
c) The premise of The Declaration of Independence states that all people are born free. The Founding Fathers prove their independence by providing a list.
d) The premise of The Declaration of Independence states that all people deserve to be happy. The Founding Fathers prove this premise by listing ways in which the King of Great Britain has made them unhappy.
