Hi there!

The answer is b. abolish their government. 


From this quote, it states "That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of theses ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or abolish it", meaning that when the government comes out of hand or, say, tries to rule over the people instead of going their way, the people (Americans) can abolish or get rid of the government. 

Hope this helps!
