I'm a Patriot, and these are the reasons why every person who has a neutral position or hasn't picked a side in the American Revolution, should be patriot, and the loyalists should accept that patriotism is the best option for the United States to survive as a nation.

- Taxation: The British government is taxing us to cover funds that don't benefit us as Americans in any way, and with which are covering the needs of a government that cannot support the 13 colonies if it wanted to, which puts us at risk of lose it all as a nation and individually, as loyalists did for not supporting our ideas.

- Property: British government is taking our property away without even thinking aboUt the rights that we as human beings have, and which are actually written in an official declaration.

- Violence: British government is causing riots, fights and encouraging violence worldwide, and we could witness that in the Boston Massacre and the Boston Tea Party, we don't want a government who's permanently causing violence and death in our nation, we want a we want a peaceful and united government for the people.

i am a loyalist, This is why you should be too:
1. their ideas are the priority for me. Our ideas are related to be a strong and unifies British Empire is good for law. In my opinion we have the best ideas, to always be attending to one Empire and never to leave it, always obey the laws becuse they are the best for all.
2.We all work for the king and we provides tha the is the correct person to govern all the empire, because is his most important thing in his world. Thats why we all have to be sure to who we are defending, sure thst this king is going to be the best and always be loyal to him, facing the harassments and being sure everyone is going to be secure.
3.One of our priorities is to make sure that the king is fulfilling his initial functions, which are try to keep trade and everything that affects the empire in perfect condition.
constantly defending the tax hike, if necessary so as not to fall into absolute poverty, but always have faith in the king and fulfill the loyalty he deserves

1.Patriots were people who wanted the American colonies to gain their independence from Britain. They wanted their own country called the United States.

2.People in the Americas felt they weren't being treated fairly by the British. They were being taxed without any say or representation in the British government. Soon cries for "liberty" were being heard throughout the colonies. The patriots wanted freedom from British rule.ç

3.There were many famous patriots. Some of them became presidents such as Thomas Jefferson who wrote the Declaration of Independence and John Adams. Perhaps the most famous patriot at the time was George Washington who led the Continental Army and later became the first President of the United States. Other famous patriots included Paul Revere, Samuel Adams, Ethan Allen, Patrick Henry, and Ben Franklin. These people are often called the Founding Fathers of the United States.

Im loyalist

My reasons are:
1. We are British citizen, we must obey their laws. It has worked before, it will still work
2. They have given us security and if we become independent from them, we would have to fight alone against other countries
3. If we become independent from them, we would be losing all the help they have given us, being against them and they would ruin us completely

I am a patriot, and these are the reasons why YOU should be one too!

- Monarchy sucks. Did you know that the Monarchy in Great Britain is not the organization that controls the country? Basically, they are just there for looking pretty and rich. But there is an actual goverment that controls everything that the country does. Imagine how messed up things would be if we stayed.

- The colonization of the U.S. was not nice. Why would you like to be faithful to the people that were cruel to your ancestors? What guarantees us its not gonna happen again?

- Last but not least, I just think British accent is hard to understand. So imagine if we talked like that!

For the loyalists I tell them that they should become patriots since in this way we would put the laws we wanted and we would not be governed by a king who exploits us.
Also another reason to become a patriot is that in this way is that we would not depend on another country for us to get ahead.
Another reason is because you were born in these colonies and not have any English relative, you should support us because that way we would be very independent.

Hi, my name is Diego Alarcón, Im from 8B and Im a patriot.

These are three reasons I am a patriot:

1. We have done a good job of governing ourselves for years and we think we can keep it up

2. It seems unfair to us that the parliament controls which companies and which countries do bussines with us. England is trying to use as and make money from us.

3. Parliament cannot tax as because colonists have no representation in parliament. No taxes without reprersentation.
