Because to the British they “WERE TRAITORS”. You have to remember that at the time ,those we call “Patriots” were British citizens. They were rebelling against the lawful government. When you rebel against a lawful government ,you are considered a traitor. So , it’s simple, to those who supported the rebellion ,they were patriots. To those they rebelled against,they were traitors. To the British, those who remained loyal to the Crown were considered patriots. You don’t need to be a rocket scientist to figure out and understand this. If we had lost the Revolution, those we consider patriots,(Washington, Hamilton, Jefferson,Franklin,etc.) would have been hung as traitors,and rightly so. Now don’t get me wrong,as an American I revere Washington,Franklin etc. But depending on who looks at them they’re either traitors or patriots.

Read the excerpt below from the Supreme Court ruling in the Scott v. Sandford. [T]he legislation and histories of the times, and

omeli [17]

The main point of this excerpt is that African-Americans were not considered US citizens.

In the Supreme Court case Dred Scott vs. Sandford, Scott is suing for his freedom from slavery. This is because his master brought him to the Wisconsin territory, a territory where slavery was outlawed.

However, the Supreme Court ruled against him. The reason why they ruled against him is based on the excerpt above. The Declaration of Independence did not make it blatantly clear that slaves were considered citizens. Since they were not considered citizens, they had no legal rights that slave owners had to respect.
