You can't compare colonists who were being killed, starved, and victimized to the point of violent rebellion to people whose only motivation is to kill.

If you want to compare our founding fathers to anyone, try the Palestinians in Gaza.

Fucking brownshirt trolls..

Terrorism - is the unlawful use of force or violence against persons or property to intimidate or coerce a government, the civilian population, or any segment thereof, in furtherance of political or social objectives. - US Federal Bureau of Investigation

Egon is here and Lief will be here shortly, this thread is going to hell in a hand basket from this point forward.

This will get spun, twisted and contorted as Socialism or something Obama is funding behind the scenes lol. Wait and see. These 2 are as bland and cookie cutter as it gets.

NC provided a vast quantity of troops for the South after all and had a major course during the war, so can't call them innocent.

That's kind of like saying the Chechen civilians deserved to get their shit blown up because of Chechen separatists. I can't really agree with that thinking.

At best, you can call the Boston Tea Party a terrorist attack. Beyond that, declaring a war, and facing off against each other army(/militia in our case) against army is uh...pretty much just a war.

Now that is just pure un-American and an oppression that stops our right to freedom of speech! Love it, or leave it! How dare you stop the voice of those that oppose you!

The Boston tea party could never be classified as an act of terrorism. But it's also not exactly an act of civil disobedience. It was an act of protest that was incited by the direct actions of the British government. This was after the British government decided to bypass their own laws passed by Parliament. The law stated that British subjects could only be taxed by their elected officials. As the colonies had no Parliament they by the very definition of British law, could not be taxed by them.

That's why I said "at best". You could make an argument that destroying property with the intent to cause damage is similar to a terrorist attack as it more a less of a "let's stick it to 'em and show we are serious" move.

Personally, I don't think it was one. End goal of terrorism is fear and I guarantee that the British weren't afraid after a bunch of colonists dumped some tea into the ocean, nor do I believe that fear was the intent or end goal of the colonists.

No, they just focus on stuff that actually matters and is relevant.

The word fascism is tossed around too much, but i think i finally found a reason to claim it is happening.
