If there's anything offensive, he's referring to his previous pamphlets.
He says, if there is anything offensive in either, I am heartily sorry.

Well, I mean, I think he was afraid.
You know, the pushback was fervent.
John Adams, once again, always with his diaries and notes, always observing the scene, writes that Otis was called a reprobate, an apostate, and a traitor in every street in Boston.

Right, right.

I mean, when he goes off about racial equality, he's speaking to an audience that almost 100% can't hear anything he's saying.
Right?
He is in a world of his own making.
He's in an America that wouldn't exist for, well, doesn't exist yet.
Yeah.
