I definitely think it is true. Didn't the Indians cry while walking on the trail? Wasn't that why it was called "The Trail of Tears"? Anyway, I am pleased to meet you. My name is Austin, and I am 16, turning 17 in 5 months and 2 days. If you need any help, let me know. No math ones though lol
The phrase was used when American colonists were being taxed. They were not allowed to choose a representative for the parliament in London, where they passed the laws for taxes.
That the people should govern themselves but there should be a set number of laws. And someone to enforce these laws. And they should be very protective as to not let things slide. They didn't want to have a king they wanted a democracy where they would hold elections and the people got to choose there leader.
