Question:

Declaration of independance question...need you opinon PLZ!?

Consider if you were a colonist living in the mid-1700s. You must decide if you are in favor of independence from Great Britain. Why, or why not?


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: If I were a colonist, i would be all for it. At that point, i should have suffered great losses from the King's outrageous taxes. Any hope of change of better would be the light at the end of tunnel. Sure, it would be a risk. I could get imprisoned or hanged for partipating if we lose, but I cant afford to not do anything because then i will lose everything.
