"The Americans have tarred and feathered your subjects, plundered your merchants, burnt your ships, denied all obedience to your laws and authority; yet so clement and so long forbearing has our conduct been that it is incumbent on us now to take a different course. Whatever may be the consequences, we must risk something; if we do not, all is over." —Lord North This quote most clearly supports an argument in favor of what? A.
British officials and the Coercive Acts

B.
Native Americans and the Proclamation Line

C.
Parliament and the Declaratory Act

D.
Sons of Liberty and the Boston Tea Party

A.  British officials and the Coercive Acts.

Explanation:

Under the colonial power of Great Britain, America was reeling with the need to attain their freedom and manage their affairs away from the authority of the monarchy. This led t numerous revolts and acts of violence that led to the destruction and damage of many of the business and actions of the British empire.

Right after the Boston Tea Party incident, the then Prime Minister of Britain Lord North made a declaration in the Parliament, stating that "we must risk something; if we do not, all is over." This outburst was a result of the ever-increasing rebellions and revolts of the colonies in their appeal for freedom. This led to the Coercive Acts being implied upon the American colonies,

Thus, Lord North's speech was given in support of the British officials and the Coercive Acts.
