The correct answer is C.

The Declaration of Independence of the United States of America is a document drafted by the Second Continental Congress in Philadelphia on July 4, 1776, which proclaimed that the Thirteen American Colonies - then at war with the Kingdom of Great Britain - had defined themselves as thirteen new sovereign and independent States and no longer recognized British rule; instead forming a new nation: the United States of America.

It can be divided into three parts: a declaration of principles relating to human rights and the legitimacy of the Revolution, a list of specific detailed allegations against King George III of England, and a formal Declaration of Independence.

In the first part there are some references to the principles of Enlightenment and Natural Law, including the reference to "natural and divine law" and the principle of equality: "All men were created equal", and immediately after the reference to "inalienable rights". It also refers to the right of the people to rebel against the established authority theorized by Locke: "it is the people's right to modify or destroy it". So, as we can see, the Declaration of Independence states that governments that abuse people's rights should be transformed or removed, as the American people was doing at that time.
