The 13 colonies wanted to separate from England because England did away with trial by Jury. England put in secret courts where a person could be hanged without knowing the charges or the opposing witnesses. A tax collector could enter your house and take whatever he wanted. A solder could be quartered in your home and you had to feed him. It was impossible to take a problem to the government. If you read the first 10 amendments to the constitution of the United States of America, all of those describe abuses instituted by King George III. If you wonder why the Constitution contains the clause that no one can be arrested for what he says on the floor of congress, that describes what happened on the floor of colonial legislatures. If you want to know why congress is prohibited from passing bills of attainder, those occurred frequently under King George. The Colonists referred to those as the intolerable acts. Read the constitution of the United States and the first 10 amendments. They were designed to prevent The Federal Government from acting like King George III. There were a few other things he did such as close the port of Boston and try to starve the citizens. He ordered that no citizen might possess a firearm while he armed the Indians on the frontier and encouraged them to massacre the citizens in the Mohawk valley, the Shenandoah valley, Western North Carolina, and West Georgia. How long do you want the list?
