<span>Can any of you gentlemen tell me where Mr. Peter Wilks lives? They give each other a glance, nod their heads, and say "What did I tell you?" Then one of them says in a gentle voice, " I'm sorry sir, but the best we can do is to tell you where he lived as of yesterday evening." Suddenly one of the old men went to hug each other, and fell and landed against the man, he then put his chin on his shoulder and cried down his back and says; Alas, alas, our poor brother is gone, we haven't seen him; oh, it's too. too hard"!</span>
Thomas Jefferson began the Declaration of Independence with a list of basic human rights because he wanted to prove how badly the British Government was treating them. He wanted to show them that the America's had a reason and a good one at that to fight back and to claim their independence. I believe Jefferson also attacked King George and listed the at least 20 times he had violated these basic human rights, that every should and ought to have.
