"That it is the right of the subjects to petition the king, and all commitments and prosecutions for such petitioning are illegal."

This quote from the English Bill of Rights would have influenced the American colonists to think that "They could make requests of the king without fear of getting into trouble for it."

Indeed, the English Bill of Rights inspired the founding fathers of the United States in writing the Bill of Rights for the new nation, as was the case of James Madison, the drafter of the US Bill of Rights.

American people during colonial times were angry and desperate for the heavy taxation imposed by the King of England. So they felt they had the right to voice out their opinions and demand better treatment to Great Britain. The colonists had to pay taxes but did not have a voice or representation in the British Parliament. And this issue was a major cause for the beginning of the Revolutionary War of Independence.
