It's The Most Famous Signature In Our American History. But The Question Is This - Why Did He Sign It That Way?

IT’S THE MOST FAMOUS SIGNATURE IN OUR NATION’S HISTORY. BUT THE QUESTION IS “WHY DID HE SIGN IT THAT WAY?

HERE’S WHY.

IN 1776 WHEN THE 56 BRAVE MEN SIGNED OUR DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE, THE FIRST TO SIGN WAS JOHN HANCOCK.

BUT, WHEN HE SIGNED THAT DOCUMENT HE SIGNED IT SO BIG. WHY? SOME SAY JOHN HANCOCK WAS AN EGOMANIAC LOOKING ONLY TO BUILD HIMSELF UP. BUT THE TRUTH IS THIS: THE KING OF ENGLAND HAD GIVEN THIS WARNING TO ALL AMERICANS – “RESIST MY RULE AND I WILL CRUSH YOU”.

SO, EYEWITNESSES THAT DAY TELL US THAT AFTER SIGNING HANCOCK SAID, “I GUESS KING GEORGE SHOULD BE ABLE TO READ THAT, EVEN WITHOUT HIS GLASSES”.

YOU SEE, JOHN HANCOCK WAS NOT SOME EGOMANIAC, HE WAS A BRAVE PATRIOT WILLING TO DIE FOR THE CAUSE OF FREEDOM.

BUT THE QUESTION IS THIS: GIVEN THOSE SAME CIRCUMSTANCES, WOULD YOU HAVE SIGNED? THINK ABOUT IT.
