to consider the advantages and difficulties you have had a a subject of the British Empire. Also consider how hard it is to rebel against a government you have had all your life (and why none of you have ever taken up arms against the U.S. government today).

Answer:

I would be a patriot, so I strongly respect of independence of the country. I would not like how the British is treating our country. They put high taxes, collected valuable things and put people in a difficult situation. I would not accept the war and waiting for peace. It would be hard to be against the government because it has more power.
