The routine routing of Tories and killing or running them out of the county is not covered because it ain’t pretty, necessary though it was. I’ve got some family history that would horrify proponents of the prettied-up version of our Revolution. Tory sentiment ran in communities, as did Patriot sentiment. There was an element of ancestry and church affiliation, too. NC might have been unique in this regard, but I doubt it.

The insane media thinks the American people are the ‘Far Right’ fanatics.

Your absolutely right. The American Revolution was really the first American civil war and like all such wars it was ugly because it was personal.
