American Revolution mikaylabp11

I'm William Williams, I represent Connecticut, and I am a merchant. I attended Harvard Law School and graduated in 1751. I believe The Declaration Of Independence should be signed because us colonists need independence!

The situation we are in is just like a parent controlling his son or daughter. The children don't have the freedom that they want. That's exactly what Great Britain is doing to America and it's just not fair, we shouldn't allow it!

I have had many occupations and you should be able to trust me in signing The Declaration Of Independence. I have been a t own clerk, a selectman, provincial representative, and council to the legislature. In 1775 I was Elected to Continental Congress.

 In America we have been suffering and I have just had enough! Great Britain is no better than America and all men should be treated equal. It's such a hassle to make laws with the King of England always on our backs. We try to make the laws but he simply won't sign them to pass the laws. We try to select our own judges but the King won't let us. He is the one who chooses the judges so they are always on his side. He is sending over new English Soldiers that we don't have the money for and he tells us that these soldiers can do whatever they want and they don't have to follow the few laws we have. He just keeps doing all these bad things even after we ask him to stop and everyone is against us. Great Britain needs to stop!

All men have equal rights to liberty, to their property, and to the protection of the laws. Let us have the freedom we want! = =
