The history of the present king of Great Britain is a history of unremitting [repeated] injuries & usurpations, among which appears no solitary fact to contradict the uniform tenor of the rest but all have [all having]in direct object the establishment of an absolute tyranny over these states.
*** and ***
He has waged cruel war against human nature itself, violating it’s most sacred rights of life and liberty in the persons of a distant people who never offended him, captivating & carrying them into slavery in another hemisphere, or to incur miserable death in their transportation thither. This piratical warfare, the opprobium of INFIDEL Powers, is the warfare of the CHRISTIAN king of Great Britain. Determined to keep open a market where MEN should be bought & sold, he has prostituted his negative for suppressing every legislative attempt to prohibit or to restrain this execrable commerce. And that this assemblage of horrors might want no fact of distinguished die, he is now exciting those very people to rise in arms among us, and to purchase that liberty of which he has deprived them, by murdering the people on whom he also obtruded them: thus paying off former crimes committed against the LIBERTIES of one people, with crimes which he urges them to commit against the LIVES of another.

In Glenn’s rant, which I’ve always enjoyed, he asks the question “Why wasn’t this taught in history class?” An excellent question. I never knew there was such a significant “original draft”. Or even suspected such.
He points out that the DoI had to be unanimous and was blocked by South Carolina and Georgia.
The coalition of the thirteen original colonies was so fragile that the issue of slavery couldn’t be addressed at that time. So sad. A missed opportunity.
It’s a shame that the Left has so politicized the issue of “slavery” that they have obscured what the Dead Old White Guys want to have posted. Th USA would have been a different country if this was common knowledge. Even today.
Argh!
