He has excited domestic violence ... Jefferson meant that George has done nothing good as far as America is concerned.  

In other words, he has made Americans (who at the time were British Subjects) enemies the inhabitants of those already there on the frontiers.

excited means make people act.

domestic means those living in America or the citizens of any country. Domestic is an adjective describing the kind of violence that flooded the country. It means setting one citizen against another citizen (in this case).

This grievance goes on to state that George has encouraged North American Indians to follow their traditions of mercilessly killing every citizen regardless of state, gender or age.

What did the disagreements between Alexander Hamilton and Thomas Jefferson create?
Elena L [17]
Disagreements between the two formed early divisions within the government regarding policies on economics. They became the foundation for political parties as Hamilton wanted to have high trade tariffs and a centralized bank (Bank of the United States) and Jefferson wanted to concentrate on what would be good for the common man (the policies of the Democrat-Republicans).
