Is this a run-on sentence?

Asked by cjscoot about 1 month ago, 5 answers.

We're doing original declerations of independence. Does this sentence have any run-ons or fragments? It is my preamble.

I, (My name here), am declaring myself independent of American History because of its boring properties and information I will...

never use; as a human being with personal rights and ideas, I am entitled to do so.

To me it sorta is.
If I were you , I'd put:
I, (My name here), am declaring myself independent of American History because of its boring properties and information I will never use. As a human being with personal rights and ideas, I am entitled to do so.

Ya, I was going to do that, but Thomas Jefferson had a one sentence preamble, and I thought it would be cool to do that. Any ideas on how I could change it?

This is what my mom said it should be. She is very smart in grammar.

It should be:

I,(your name here), am declaring myself independent of American History because of its' boring properties and information. I believe I will never use the properties and information; therefore, as a human with personal rights and ideas, I am entitled to do so.

Ok, I give up on making it a one sentence preamble.
Thanks for the sentence, I'll use that.
