The Royal Proclamation of 1763 versus The Declaration of Independence of 1776 (Part 2 of 3)

the last 15 seconds of this clip is at the core of US independence.The empire saying its "not in our interest". That is what the decleration of independance was about...the states having the authority to act in the interests of its people and not that of a king an ocean away. I think it laughable to say the kings stance on natives was a grand human rights gesture. It was a convienent constraint put on people he sought to rule to show them who is boss,and whos interest will be served.

This is from the George Carlin quote,"The US was founded by slaveowners who said all men are created equal".
