What radical political theorist, who had come to America from England in 1774, published 'Common Sense' in January 1776?

According to your text, systems of government in the united states are shifting from what to what?

The year is 1776. the family of philosopher john locke has brought a lawsuit against thomas jefferson for copying locke's ideas. locke's family claim that jefferson's "declaration of independence" plagiarizes locke's ideas from two treatises on government. you are the judge ruling on the case. you must research how jefferson's ideas compare to locke's and determine whether or not jefferson is guilty of stealing locke's ideas. your paragraph opinion (a court document explaining how you arrived at your decision on a case) should contain the following: explain at least 2 ideas of jefferson and locke that are similar explain at least 1 idea of jefferson that is different from locke's determine whether or not jefferson is guilty of plagiarism explain why or why not ~~ you don't have to do the work for me but i really would like some with this, you ! ( if you would like to do it for me that's great too : )

Karin bought illegal firearms at a gun show. at her trial, she alleged that she had committed this crime because her boyfriend had threatened to harm her and her two daughters if she did not. her lawyer asked the judge to instruct the jury that the prosecution had an obligation to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that karin had acted freely. instead, the judge told the jury that karin had the burden of proving duress by a preponderance of the evidence. who is correct?
