Also, in line 11 - 12, "HE has obstructed the Administration of Justice, by refusing his Assent to Laws for establishing Judiciary Powers", showing refusal to enforce laws related to justice - establishment.
2. For "He has made it difficult for colonists to participate in government", in line 6 - 7, "HE has refused to pass other Laws for the Accommodation of large Districts of People, unless those People would relinquish the Right of Representation in the Legislature, a Right inestimable to them", this forces colonists to give up their right of representation to get certain laws passed, making it hard for them to participate in government.
