Declaration+of+Independence+Carlyfr11

My name is Lyman Hall. I am a representative of Georgia. I am a physician with my own medical practice. I am here speaking to you because I am fed up with England controlling every move we make. When I was a young lad in school, all my tests and quizzes controlled my placement in my later years of school. So if you don't do well on a test, then you will be limited on the knowledge you know on that subject and you can't move forward. That is exactly what King George is doing to the 13 colonies. He is controlling what we do in future years. He is also giving us restrictions of what we can do, where we can go, and what we can say. As a doctor, many people in Georgia and South Carolina put their lives in my hands and I never let them down. For no reason at all, King George sends millions of solders into our colonies and makes us house them. As we are housing and feeding these unwanted solders, they don't have to follow any of the laws that we do. All I ask is that we fight for what is right for OUR new government, OUR new laws, OUR new people, OUR new country.
