- Rights_of_Englishmen abstract "The rights of Englishmen are the perceived traditional rights of English (and British) subjects. Many of the colonists that objected to British rule in the British colonies in North America argued that their traditional rights as Englishmen were being violated. This subsequently became one of the original primary justifications for the American Revolution of 1775 and the resulting separation of the colonies from the British Empire.The American colonies had since the 17th century been fertile ground for libertarian opinion within the spectrum of English political discourse. However, as the ratification of the Declaration of Independence approached, the issue among the colonists of which particular rights were significant became divisive. George Mason, one of the Founding Fathers of the United States, stated that "We claim nothing but the liberty and privileges of Englishmen in the same degree, as if we had continued among our brethren in Great Britain." The nature of the discussion itself can be seen to be revolutionary.".
