Answer 1

Answer:

Topic: The Founding Fathers rebelling against the British government and declaring independence

My Viewpoint: They were Justified

Explanation:

The first question to ask is this:

By what philosophy, moral justification, logical necessity and or natural law did the Britons see fit to colonise the Founding Fathers?

Colonisation was not exactly a British idea for they had also been colonised by France. History shows that the relationship Between Britain and France was severed on the alter fueled by gallons of blood from various wars between both countries. If Britain saw it fit to exercise self-determination, then there is no reason the founding Fathers should be held liable to a wrong for doing the same.
