Read the passage from the Declaration of Independence.

But when a long train of abuses and usurpations pursuing invariably the same object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such government, and to provide new guards for their future security.-Such has been the patient sufferance of these colonies, and such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter their former systems of government.

What tone do the connotations of the phrase abuses and usurpations convey?

reasonable

admiring

ironic

angry
