The quote that most strongly show Locke's influence on those who drafted the Declaration of Independence:
"<span>Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed..."

In the American colonies in 1776 Loyalist party affiliates, also known as Tories, were loyal to the British crown. Many Loyalists assured British leaders of their unwavering loyalty to Great Britain and asserted that they would fight for the British in the event of war.
Loyalists believed that a loyalty was owed to Great Britain, that removal of British rule would lead to a collapse of the American colony's economy. Many loyalists were wealthy British officials who had economic ties to England. Others remained loyal due to the immense power of the British military who was known for their incredible naval fleet.

Many loyalist women were left in an awkward position after the Declaration of Independence to stay and care for properties. These properties were often confiscated to punish their husbands, but also punished the women and children with these confiscations. Women were allowed to vote in some states, but outlawed against in doing so in other states.

The phrase "all men are created equal" is one of great controversy because it was open to interpretation. Who exactly is meant by "men"? Does it mean only the male gender, or mankind as well?

Answer:
You could explain this using the B. Mean world syndrome.
Explanation:
The Mean world syndrome is an <em>error in thought</em> in which an individual thinks <em>the world is a much more dangerous place than it actually</em> is because he/she has been long exposed to mass media.
In this case, we can see Martha watches <em>"quite a bit"</em> of television and mostly crime dramas. This long exposure has made her develop this syndrome and thus she believes that her city has a higher crime rate than it does.
The answer would actually be false.
