Patrick Henry argues that war with Britain is inevitable.
In his speech he says, "The war is inevitable -- and Let it come!" Throughout his famous "Give me liberty or give me death" speech, Patrick Henry details all of the reasons the colonies should have a revolution. He argues that Britain is treating them like slaves and ignoring all of their requests and petitions. He also states that the colonies will never be stronger. They are as strong as they are going to get and if they wait too long, Britain will have amassed an army that they will not be able to defeat.
