We The American Colonists Are Not Rebels
We the American colonists are not rebels. All the colonists wanted to do was have religious freedom so they left Britain to come to the Americas to start their colonies and have their own governments and have their own religions. They also got tired of the king taxing them without representation and saying to allow that British soldiers are to housed and taken care of by the colonists and that really set the colonists through the roof having to take care of someone they didn’t even know.

We the American Colonists are patriots because they wanted to prove they can run this country better without the king and that got the king mad and they had to take care of the British soldiers and they never wanted to and the British soldiers would treat

We say these hooligans are nothing but rebels and indecent ones at that. We believe that under British rule we will be happier because they will protect us better with their massive army and we are also business partners as well.

After that dreaded war most of us loyalists went back to England because we didn’t want no part with the rebels and their new found country. But not all loyalists went back to England a few stayed however and helped with the colonist’s education and skills. Even though we fought them they still welcomed us back with open arms why? Why would they even want us with them when we just killed a lot of their family members?

I still stand with my fellow colonists and say that we are not rebels we are men and women that just wanted freedom from Britain and we fought with our lives and our comrades that perished on the battle field did not die in vain we will honor their deaths with this freedom we have achieved and we will lay their souls to rest so they can die with dignity in their hearts. Even though the loyalists fought against our freedom they are still welcome because they can help with this great country of ours and so we welcome those who have stayed behind with us so that we can build a brighter tomorrow. This is what it means to be a patriot and not a rebel we fought for what we believed in and we won this hellish war with blood, sweat, and many many tears but those who gave their lives helped shape

    On the onset of the American Revolution, colonials who were zealous of the British crown and colonists who defied and openly rebelled against Great Britain shared similarities in upbringings but differed in beliefs of what a true American represented. On the brink of war with Britain, colonists began to diverge and separate themselves according to which side they believed they were most devoted to. Colonials had to define themselves as either Loyalists to a distant king or Patriots to the land they lived in and loved.…

    The main loyalists came from what is now known to be Canada in 1783 and 1784. Most of coastal Nova Scotia received Loyalist settlers, as did Cape Breton and Prince Edward Island then called St. John's Island. The loyalists like me had to decide to support the American Revolution. Colonists for independence from England were named or called revolutionaries or whigs. But some Americans thought that to break away from the British government would not be right, they usually were called loyalists or tories.…

    The colonies or future Americans were in the right for their redemption against the British. The colonies were right to fight since taxation without representation, the strict government control, and the British officials' hostility. The first reason the Americans had a reason and right to fight was because of taxation without representation. The colonies would get extra taxes on everything, meanwhile back in England no one was getting taxed there. One of these examples is the Stamp Act, the Stamp Act authorized a stamp on things like playing cards or newspapers that would indicate an extra tax was needed to be paid.…

    Friction had developed over the course of the war between British officers and colonial men. The haughty British would not recognize any American militia men above the rank of captain. For example, General Wolfe referred to the colonial militia as “in general the dirtiest, most contemptible, cowardly dogs that you can conceive.” The confident, energetic Americans believed to be the cutting edge of British civilization and they felt that they deserved credit rather than contempt for securing a New World…

    After all of the hardship and violence the British imposed on the colonists, the Americans were justified in waging war and breaking away from Britain. The Colonists were justified in breaking away because the parliament passed laws that were unjustified, The British king was of tyranny, The Stamp Act of 1765, The Townshend Act and The Boston Massacre. All of this lead to the colonies joining together and rebelling against the British.…

    In 1776 the Boston Tea Party took place. This little rebellion started the war and made the British angry, if we keep fighting it will just make them more angry at us. In 1776 the Declaration of Independence was written. During the War George Washington and his men made a grand retreat. A retreat means we are probably losing the war, so if we are going to lose, we might as well stop so soldiers do not keep dying. Valley Forge is a village in the mountains in Philadelphia, where George Washington and his army had set up winter camp.…
