Patriots or Terrorists?

In the American Revolution, there were groups of people called patriots and loyalists. The patriots were a large group of people who fought for the colonies to become a new country, and the loyalists were people who were loyal to the British monarchy. I have heard that some people call the patriots terrorists. In my opinion, I would never use the term terrorists for the patriots. I believe that the people, who call them terrorists, are the people who support the British monarchy very much. Because I’m not a very big supporter for the British monarchy, I wouldn’t call the patriots terrorists. I think it was the right thing to do, when the patriots fought for their liberty. The reason for that is because, it was wrong of the British to only allow the colonists to trade with the them. In 1773, the patriots were brave enough to go onto the British ships to throw out the tea, so that the colonists would boycott from buying goods from the British. If they hadn’t done what they did in 1773, I think it would affect what America would be like today. Now, America is an independent, developed, strong, and civilized country because of the patriots and the colonists. In conclusion, I wouldn’t call the patriots terrorists because of the fact that they did the right thing for the colonies.
