The Boston Tea Party was one of the most anti colonialist events in history.

No. It was a protest against tax.

If it had been the most anti-colonial event in history, then the Bostonians would have given the land back to the Moswetuset, got back in their boats and returned to Europe.

The semantics being used to defend an intellectual nit wit (D’Souza) are amusing.

So the Americans weren’t colonists serving their colonial masters in London?

Only to pre Revolution America the British Empire wasn’t an Imperial Empire?

Its utter foolishness
