over all of the colonies
-
and even, as we're about to see,
-
passed something that was in the equivalent of legislation
-
that applied to all of the colonies.

So in a sense that's a pretty radical gesture.

And I found actually a satire written in 1774
-
that does a good job I think of showing
-
how the Congress did seem radical to some
-
and how to some it did not represent
-
happy, good things that were about to happen
-
but actually represented something frightening
-
and out of control.
