Asked by HASANNY

are the american colonist justified in rebelling agaisnt great britain?
Answered by Ms. Sue
The Loyalists said "no!" The colonists weren't justified in rebelling against their mother country. Great Britain was the lawful ruler of the colonies. These young upstart rebels just want to cause trouble.

What do you think?

Answered by Ms. Sue
What about taxation without representation?

What about the British king and Parliament ignoring the concerns of the colonists?

What about the excessive taxes imposed upon the colonists?
