In my opinion, I think that the colonist could be a patriots. The colonist tried their best to protect them self and to prevent them from losing profit, even though they cause some violence. If the British listen to them and lower the price of goods and doesn't make them paid taxes, then the colonies might be more happy about it. American revolution could be compare to current event. Taiwanese people want to be sperate from China, so that they could became a country. Which just like how the colonist wanted the colonies to became their own country and not part of the britain.
Hi Rita, you position is clear, and you demonstrate understanding of both the colonists' and British points of view. What connections can you make between this issue or the historical events, to current events? I'll check back later to see what you've added.
