Opposing With Manly Firmness

For Quartering large bodies of armed troops among us:
For protecting them, by a mock Trial, from punishment for any Murders which they should commit on the Inhabitants of these States:
For cutting off our Trade with all parts of the world:
For imposing Taxes on us without our Consent:
For depriving us in many cases, of the benefits of Trial by Jury:
For transporting us beyond Seas to be tried for pretended offences:
For abolishing the free System of English Laws in a neighbouring Province, establishing therein an Arbitrary government, and enlarging its Boundaries so as to render it at once an example and fit instrument for introducing the same absolute rule into these Colonies:
For taking away our Charters, abolishing our most valuable Laws, and altering fundamentally the Forms of our Governments:
For suspending our own Legislatures, and declaring themselves invested with power to legislate for us in all cases whatsoever.

Imagine.

The CIA is now to receive each and every one of our bank details. Why do they want them? Because they know that they can have them, that's why. Any chance of reciprocation? What do you think? According to the old monster, Frank Gaffney, this is because all European governments are run by the Muslim Brotherhood. Radio Four let that one pass. Physically frightened not to, I expect.
