Life, Liberty and Property

9. Chapter II: Of the State of Nature, John Locke To understand political power aright, and derive it from its original, we must consider what estate [social class] all men are naturally in, and that is, a state of perfect freedom to order their actions, and dispose of their possessions and persons as they think fit, within the bounds of the law of Nature, without asking leave or depending upon the will of any other man. A state also of equality, wherein all the power and jurisdiction is reciprocal [given equally] no one having more than another, there being nothing more evident than that creatures of the same species and rank, promiscuously [without discrimination] born to all the same advantages of Nature, and the use of the same faculties, should also be equal one amongst another, without subordination [being below someone else] or subjection, unless the lord and master of them all should, by any manifest declaration of his will, set one above another, and confer on him, by an evident and clear appointment, an undoubted right to dominion and sovereignty [power] …. The state of Nature has a law of Nature to govern it, which obliges every one, and reason, which is that law, teaches all mankind who will but consult it, that being all equal and independent, no one ought to harm another in his life, health, liberty or possessions; for men being all the workmanship of one omnipotent and infinitely wise Maker; all the servants of one sovereign Master, sent into the world by His order and about His business; they are His property, whose workmanship they are made to last during His, not one another's pleasure. And, being furnished with like faculties, sharing all in one community of Nature, there cannot be supposed any such subordination among us that may authorize us to destroy one another, as if we were made for one another's uses, as the inferior ranks of creatures are for ours. … And that all men may be restrained from invading others' rights, and from doing hurt to one another, and the law of Nature be observed, which willeth the peace and preservation of all mankind, the execution of the law of Nature is in that state put into every man's hands, whereby every one has a right to punish the transgressors of that law to such a degree as may hinder [prevent] its violation. … And thus, in the state of Nature, one man comes by a power over another, but yet no absolute or arbitrary power

11. Diversity in the Colonies
With Ethnic diversity, would come Religious diversity (allowed by Religious tolerance/freedom)
Think about a small rural town vs a big city like New York….how might their way of thinking be different?

12. Diversity in the Colonies “very mixed company of different nations and religions” Dr. Alexander Hamilton, 1744 Maryland physician travelling in Pennsylvania Friday, June 8th [1744; Pennsylvania] I dined at a tavern with a very mixed company of different nations and religions. There were Scots, English, Dutch, Germans, and Irish; there were Roman Catholics, Churchmen, Presbyterians, Quakers, Newlightmen, Methodists, Seventhdaymen, Moravians, Anabaptists. The whole company consisted of twenty-five, planted round an oblong table, in a great hall well stocked with flies. The company divided into committees in conversation. The prevailing topic was politics, and conjectures of a French war. A knot of Quakers there talked only about selling of flour and the low price it bore. They touched a little upon religion, and high words arose among some of the sectaries [members of different religious sects], but their blood was not hot enough to quarrel, or, to speak in the canting phrase, their zeal wanted fervency”

13. “they are left still foreigners” Edmund Burke, [on] Pennsylvania, 1758
“they are left still foreigners” Edmund Burke, [on] Pennsylvania, It was certainly a very right policy to encourage the importation of foreigners into Pennsylvania, as well as into our other colonies. By this we [Great Britain] are great gainers without any diminution of the inhabitants of Great Britain. But it has been frequently observed, and as it should seem, very justly complained of, that they are left still foreigners, and likely to continue so for many generations; as they have schools taught, books printed, and even the common news paper in their own language, by which means there is no appearance of their blending and becoming one people with us. This certainly is a great irregularity, and the greater, as these foreigners by their industry, frugality, and a hard way of living, in which they great exceed our people, have in a manner thrust them out in several places, so as to threaten the colony with the danger of being wholly foreign in language, manners, and perhaps even inclinations. In the year 1750 were imported into Pennsylvania and its dependencies four thousand three hundred and seventeen Germans, whereas of British and Irish but one thousand arrived ⎯ a considerable number, if it was not so vastly overbalanced by that of the foreigners. I do by no means think that this sort of transplantations ought to be discouraged. I only observe along with others that the manner of their settlement ought to be regulated, and means sought to have them naturalized in reality.”

15. John Peter Zenger
Prints “Seditious” Libel in his New York Weekly Journal
Is critical of the Governor (readers loved it)
Why would this anger the Governor?
Zenger put on trial
His trial becomes the basis for the 1st amendment (freedom of speech)

16. At a Council held at Fort George in New York, November 2, 1734
At a Council held at Fort George in New York, November 2, It is ordered that the sheriff for the City of New York do forthwith [immediately] take and apprehend John Peter Zenger for printing and publishing several seditious libels [false statement damaging someone’s reputation] dispersed throughout his journals or newspapers, entitled the New York Weekly Journal; … inflaming their minds with contempt of His Majesty’s government, and greatly disturbing the peace thereof. An upon his taking the said John Peter Zenger, to commit him to the prison or common jail of the said city and county.

17. Hamilton’s Summation: Hamilton’s lengthy summation to the Jury still stands as an eloquent defense of a free press. It is natural, it is a privilege, I will go farther, it is a right, which all free men claim, that they are entitled to complain when they are hurt. They have a right to publicly to remonstrate [protest] against the abuses of power in the strongest of terms, to put their neighbors upon their guard against the craft of open violence of men in authority, and to assert with courage the sense they have of the blessings of liberty, the value they put upon it, and their resolution at all hazards to preserve it as one of the greatest blessings heaven can bestow… The loss of liberty, to a generous mind, is worse than death. And yet we know that there have been those in all ages who for the sake of preferment, or some imaginary honor, have freely lent a helping hand to oppress, nay to destroy their country… This is what every man who values freedom ought to consider. He should act by judgment and not by affection or self-interest; for where those prevail, no ties of either country or kindred are regarded: as upon the other hand, the man who loves his country… prefers its liberty to all other considerations, well knowing that without liberty life is a misery… Power may justly be compared to a great river. While kept within its due bounds, it is both beautiful and useful. But when it overflows its banks, it is then too impetuous [forceful] to be stemmed; it bears down all before it, and brings destruction and desolation wherever it comes. If, then, this is the nature of power, let us at least do our duty, and like wise men who value freedom use our utmost care to support liberty, the only bulwark [barrier, protection] against lawless power, which in all ages­ has sacrificed to its wild lust and boundless ambition the blood of the best men that ever lived…
