Question

how did the declaration of independence reflect the grievances of the american colonists leading up to the revoutionary war

Answer 1

The whole reason they started the Revolutionary War because they did not like the way their mother country was treating them. (England) Because of the taxes, searches on ships, searching their houses, and in some cases capturing Americans on ships and making them work for them( mostly in the war did this happen). 
1. They gave freedom of speech, press, and of coarse religion. 
2. They were able to own everything they wanted (later America will own a lot of slave because of this. )
3. They did not tax colonies as much tax as England made them pay. 
4. They were able to be tried by jury.
  There are a lot of them but if there is a multiple choice question I would prefer to get some of that.
