Question

please helppppppppppppp

Answer 1

The preamble sets it up:

"... when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such government, and to provide new guards for their future security. --Such has been the patient sufferance of these colonies; and such is now the NECESSITY which constrains them to alter their former systems of government. The history of the present King of Great Britain is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute tyranny over these states."

That is, there has been "a long train of abuses and usurpations . . . to reduce them under.. .despotism" (Note that the final sentence parallels this line by referring to "a history or repeated injuries and usurpations. . establishment of an absolute tyranny".)

The next paragraph begins the LIST of a series of specific "injuries and usurpations" the King is held to have committed.
