Early Americans were labelled Rebels,Terrorists & Insurgents when the American Revolution started with the famous Boston Tea Party.
American Historian William Washington has researched Americas bitter fight against English Rule and discovered that settlers in America who wanted to escape high English taxes by fighting for freedom for America were called everything from Rebels to Separatists the nasty words always used by Imperial Powers.
Scottish and Irish settlers who had settled in America and fought for American Independence had to overcome another problem they had to fight against Scots and Irish who were front line troops in the British Army.
Always remember that one Man's Insurgent is another Man's Freedom Fighter.
