Country Men Fellow Men Wake Up Its time to become FREE

American Revolution for us in the annals of history will be the first war for liberating America from the colonial aggressions. For the Americans, this victory will be a divine blessing as now we will be achieving something very great and heavenly  It is in wake of this spirit, we the people of America must raise to create a space for free America-free from the Britains subjugated policies and controls. Supporters of King III want to amend the laws in conjunction with the British rulers but we the people of America want complete Independence, because the cause of America is in great measure the cause of all mankind and the fate of America will become the fate of humanity of large.    
Social, political and economic conditions of colonies are appalling and the atmosphere is full of tension. The undue restrictions have jeopardized our lives. The various acts Sugar Act, Currency Act, Stamp Act, Townshend Acts, Tea Act and above all these Coercive or Intolerable Acts have become now intolerable. We cannot hold town meetings they have closed the port of Boston to injure its trade annulled the Massachusetts Charter and instituted government by men appointed from England provided for the trial in England of men accused of treason and erected a new province of Quebec that robbed all the colonies the lands west of Alleghenies whose value they had just come to realize.  They want us to submit to the English Laws. After open conflict in Lexington and Concord and Massachusetts shooting incident, still our leaders thought that King George III can meet our grievances. They forwarded the proposal to the King to repeal these Intolerable Acts and to form mutually beneficial relationship in future. But look what happened, King George III declared that colonists were in open rebellion against the King and England and sent troops to suppress it. This is not the time to reconcile and avoid confrontation rather it is the time to FIGHT FOR INDEPENDENCE.

Some may argue that America has prospered under British Empire and should remain bound to her but it doesnt mean if a baby has grown on milk can never eat meat or that the first twenty years of life are to become the precedent for the next twenty.  Moreover, the colonies state of affairs would have been much better if these European countries had not influenced their power over them. England is enforcing its laws too far and if we will not take any action now, then the King will have full control of our colonies and we will be virtually left with no way to start the revolution. If the King desire is to have the control of all the American colonies, he should have given equal treatment to his people and the colonists but the treatment of colonies and its people by King George III has broken all the natural rights of the people. Man is born equal and it is unnatural to differentiate between a King and his subjects.

            British Monarchy is only responsible for our sufferings. History is evident of the fact that only Kings PRIDE has been responsible for all civil and foreign wars. I claim that the practice of monarchy lineage originates from sin and even God and Bible condemn it. Some may claim that hereditary succession diminishes the chances of civil wars but I refute this claim as there had been at least eight civil wars and nineteen rebellions in the history of Britain.  The practice of hereditary succession is contemptible as along with it is associated not only the evils of civil war, but also corruption and legacy of incompetent kings.

I have to painfully add here that Britain has never watched the interests of colonies as claimed by many rather its sole motive has always been to secure her economically. Therefore they do not deserve our loyalty. It is the governments responsibility to protect the life, freedom and property of people and we should judge it only on the basis if it has been able to accomplish its goal but British Government has failed in its purpose. The system of Britain government is complex and full of contradictions and monarchy has been awarded with all the authoritative power. To rule people of a country, continental form of government is essentially required and British are incapable to provide it. Democratic form of government is the best form of government where each and every colony will be given equal representation. Once independence is achieved, we need to opt for this form of government which will eventually give our true freedom to us. 

I declare that we have it in our power to begin the world over.  I am confident that our country has the capability and capacity to free itself from Britishs oppression and become a prosperous country. We are ready for war and ready to become a separate and liberated country as the day of independent manhood is at hand-we feel our strength.  This is an ideal time for the colonies to form their own governments as they are young because youth is the seed time of good habits, as well in nations as in individuals.  The British Parliament wants the colonies not to build any relations with each other and if they want, it should happen through Britain. If anyhow colonies wish to remain with England, the problems which had occurred in the past will definitely reemerge in future also. Moreover its pointless for a country to rule another land which is thousands of miles away across the ocean. So it has become inevitable to attain our independence.

I would like to emphasize here that not in numbers, but in unity, that our great strength lies.  Time hath come to achieve independence as colonies are small and cohesive. After a certain period of time, colonies will grow and there will be less cohesiveness and will not be able to come together for freedom. The unanimity among us and all colonies has all the strength to challenge the mighty power of the King. Let us show to the world when all the young colonies get united then we have the power to defeat the most powerful country of the world.

O Fellow Men Dont Worry Our land is rich in resources and we can support ourselves. We are debt free and of course there will be a cost of war but it is worth a sacrifice if in return our motives of fight are accomplished OUR FREEDOM AND OUR OWN GOVERNMENT.

We are well suited to build a compatible army as that of Britain. The total cost of building will be 3,500,000  and we are inherently capable to raise a fleet as timber, iron, tar, and cordage are our natural products. We dont have to buy products from other countries and moreover it can become a great product of commerce. Spaniards and Portuguese hire ships of war so we can sell to them as, A navy when finished is worth more than it cost And is that nice point in national policy, in which commerce and protection are united. Let us build if we want them not, we can sell and by that means replace our paper currency with ready gold and silver. 

We have all the capability and the resources to establish a prosperous system of trade and fair and just government. America will in time excel the whole world.  Dont forget if a small country like England can reign over the whole world, then even America can. I am emphasizing that even America can become a super power but first she has to liberate herself from the clutches of British Empire.
SO What are you waiting for This is a call for all AMERICANS to come out of their shells of British subjugation and FIGHT FOR INDEPENDENCE.
