The Declaration of Independence: A view from a US citizen

No where in the history of mankind has a nation stood so tall as our United States of America.

On this day, as all Americans prepare to recognize The Declaration of Independence, it has come to the attention of Jose Rizal Online that there ought to be an Amendment to, moving forward, remove:

  • , the merciless Indian Savages, whose known rule of warfare, is an undistinguished destruction of all ages, sexes and conditions.

... as the last of the "... Facts be submitted to a candid world" when our Founding Fathers severed ties with the tyranny of the King of Great Britain.

The spirit, timelessness and integrity of history's most sacred document remains unaffected when the above clauses are removed.

We all understand what our forefathers are conveying with, "He [the king]* has excited domestic insurrections amongst us, and has endeavoured to bring on the inhabitants of our frontiers."
