"Do you know why the Founding Fathers were so pissed off at King George III of England? He was a tyrant, obviously. But they wrote a long list of specific grievances, some of which I want to read to you. They come after the more famous preamble. We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal. Something about them feels oddly familiar. The list starts with... He has obstructed the administration of justice. He has made judges dependent on his will alone. He has erected a multitude of new offices and sent hither swarms of officers to harass our people. He has kept among us, in times of peace, standing armies without the consent of our legislatures for protecting them by a mock trial from punishment for any murders which they should commit on the inhabitants of these states, for cutting off our trade with all parts of the world, for imposing taxes on us without our consent, for depriving us in many cases of the benefits of trial by jury, for transporting us beyond seas to be tried for pretended offenses, for taking away our charters, abolishing our most valuable laws, and altering fundamentally the forms of our governments, for suspending our own legislatures, and declaring themselves invested with power to legislate for us in all cases whatsoever. He says, you're not going to be a dictator, are you? I said, no, no, no, other than day one. He has plundered our seas, ravaged our coasts, burnt our towns, and destroyed the lives of our people. He is at this time transporting large armies of foreign mercenaries to complete the works of death, desolation, and tyranny, already begun with circumstances of cruelty and perfidy scarcely paralleled in the most barbarous ages, and totally unworthy the head of a civilized nation. Any of this sound familiar?"
