[Captain Kirk]

After the Revolution was won and the British army left, many Loyalists(knowledgable historians say close to 1/3 of the polpulation)remained behind.

Certainly....but you didn't asked about those who took up arms agaisnt the U.S. during the period. Please inform me when, if ever, we passed similar laws depriving ALL Muslims of property rights and the first amendment?

"...those who took up arms agaisnt the U.S. during the period."

The British fought with mercenary armies and Indian allies - not with armed civilian Loyalists. Civilain loyalists did not flee because they had taken up arms. They fled due the Loyalist opinions they maintained & dared not express and the mistrust others had of them.
