Minor premise: The government of England is subjecting the American colonists to laws that take away their unalienable rights.

Jefferson’s reasoning is valid, but what could be added to the minor premise to strengthen the conclusion that revolution is necessary?

Only democracies can protect unalienable rights.

All governments need to take away some of these rights.

Once governments take away these rights, they cannot be returned.

Colonists have previously asked the king to reform these laws.
