These were some of the grievances the colonists had against George III cited in the Declaration of Independence.
TC1000 - IT IS SO WONDERFUL TO HAVE YOU ANSWERING THESE QUESTIONS -
OBAMA SHOULD BE WONDERING ABOUT THE TERRORISTS WITHIN OUR BOUNDS HERE IN AMERICA - IN ILLINOIS PEOPLE IN LAKE IN THE HILLS WERE ASTOUNDED BY THE REPORT IN THEIR SPECIAL PAPER THAT A TERRORISTS WAS IN THEIR MIST - WHILE THE FBI, CIA OR WHOMEVER WAS IN THEIR AREA - THIS WAS ONLY 1 MILE AWAY FROM MY DAUGHTER WHEN THIS HAPPENED AND I HAD A PHONE CALL FROM HER IN A PANIC. THEY ARRESTED HIM HAVING TIMERS AND SUCH FOR A BOMB OR BOMBS AT THE TIME - AND THE PEOPLE IN LAKE IN THE HILLS WONDERED IF HE WOULD HAVE USED IT ON THEM OR SOMEONE IN CHICAGO SUBURBS OR RIGHT IN THE CITY ITSELF.
OBAMA DOESN'T GET IT WITH HAMAS COMING OVER OUR BORDERS THAT MANY BORDER PATROL MEN KNOW ABOUT AND YET WHEN THEY TELL OUR GOVERNMENT THE GOVERNMENT GIVES A BLIND EYE TO THEM.
YES IT IS JUST LIKE THE COLONISTS OF YORE - WE ARE BEING TAXED TO HELL AND BACK AND THIS SHOULDN'T BE THE CASE - AND THOSE WHO PROTEST ARE CALLED TERRORISTS NOT PATRIOTS AND THAT IS A LAUGH. THIS GOVERNMENT AND CONGRESS KNOW A TERRORISTS THEY HOLD THE HAND OF THE ENEMY LIKE CHEVEZ, CASTRO AND OTHERS IS JUST PLAIN IGNORANCE - WE ARE NOT THE TERRORISTS WE ARE PATRIOTS THOSE LIKE OF YORE WHO HAD TEA PARTIES, BUT MADE SURE THE TEA WAS IN THE WATER - NOT LIKE TODAY WHERE THEY HAVE PARTIES AND MAKE SURE THEY DON'T KILL THE ENVIRONMENT. WHAT WAS THAT SUPPOSE TO PROVE? I ACTUALLY BELIEVE IT WOULD BE GOOD FOR THE ENVIRONMENT - IT IS GOOD FOR THOSE WHO DRINK IT. GREEN TEA IS GREAT HEALTH WISE FOR YOU TO DRINK OR TAKE BY PILL FORM. AND GREAT FOR YOUR PLANTS ALSO FROM WHAT I'VE READ.
WE ARE PATRIOTS NOT TERRORISTS AND THIS IS NOT A ENGLISH COLONY ANY LONGER. AMERICANS HAVE TO PUT THEIR FOOT DOWN AND WITH KNOWLEDGE AND NO FEARS OF WHAT WILL HAPPEN WHEN THEY DO - THEY WILL HAVE THOSE FREEDOMS AND RIGHTS NOT TAKEN FROM THEM, JUST LIKE THE COLONISTS - THEY DIDN'T TAKE IT. WHERE ARE THE HERO'S HERE? I'VE WRITTEN AND CALLED -

Oh, here it goes with the tin hat - can't come up with a better line - must be that Left wing liberalism that stops you from making some type of better remark.
We are being taxed today without representation from this Government - they say you have to pay taxes even on healthcare and your children will have to pay forever taxes -
Wasn't the United Nations going to take those overseas for trial to be tried for offenses? I remember hearing that.
Oh, and just alittle rant! LOL
The ICC can generally exercise jurisdiction only in cases where the accused is a national of a state party, the alleged crime took place on the territory of a state party, or a situation is referred to the court by the United Nations Security Council.[11] The court is designed to complement existing national judicial systems: it can exercise its jurisdiction only when national courts are unwilling or unable to investigate or prosecute such crimes.[12][13] Primary responsibility to investigate and punish crimes is therefore left to individual states.[14]
No taxation without representation" began as a slogan in the period 1763–1776 that summarized a primary grievance of the British colonists in the Thirteen Colonies. In short, many in those colonies believed the lack of direct representation in the distant British Parliament was an illegal denial of their rights as Englishmen, and therefore laws taxing the colonists (the kind of law that affects the most individuals directly), and other laws applying only to the colonies, were unconstitutional. In recent times, it has been used by several other groups in several different countries over similar disputes.
The phrase captures a sentiment central to the cause of the English Civil War, as articulated by John Hampden who said “what an English King has no right to demand, an English subject has a right to refuse” in the Ship money case.
We should do the same thing here in this country.
