Patrick Henry believed that the British planned to attack the liberties and rights of the American colonies. In his famous speech, he expressed his conviction that the British government sought to suppress colonial freedom through oppressive measures and military force. He emphasized the urgency of resisting this tyranny, famously declaring that "give me liberty, or give me death!" to rally support for the cause of independence. Henry's rhetoric underscored his belief that the threat was not just military but also a fundamental assault on individual rights.
