Tell me again, how many children did Jefferson blow up? Were there English civilians murdered and burned upside down? Did the colonialists set off bombs to kill everyone just in order to agitate?

This guy is an idiot.

I don't recall much in the way of indiscriminate bombings and beheadings in my study of the Revolutionary war.

In South Carolina and other parts of the Deep South, the Revolution had the character of a civil war, with Patriot and Loyalist gangs (militias) going at each other using guerilla tactics.

There were records of such atrocities on both sides.
