The American patriots tore down statues of King George III because they did not want to be subjects of the King and did not want statues of someone they branded as a "despot" in their public places.
patriots threw ropes around it and pulled down causing it to smash and crumble into pieces :)
== == Colonist Melted it into bullets and fired it at the red coats aka: British soldiers!!!!
During the American Revolution, rebels did destroy a statue of King George III.
People in New York City heard about the Declaration of Independence several days later, General George Washington brought the official copy to his troops. That evening, excited Patriots tore down the statue of British King George III. They melted the down the metal statue. With that metal they made bullets to use against the British.
Because they opposed the tea tax and did not want to be branded as followers of the King.
Well for one thing the patriots were against the acts that were passed on from King George the third. They were ready to fight against it. The loyalist were in support of the British ideas and rules of passing down the laws and taxes.Well for one thing the patriots were against the acts that were passed on from King George the third.

Yes. The army offered to make George Washington the King. He turned it down and submitted his resignation to congress.
since King George the third shut down the Boston Harbor Boston was not getting any food or supplies that they needed so the patriots helped Boston.[:
Loyalists were usually rich colonists and patriots were usually poorer colonists so they didn't treat each other fairly. Loyalists looked down upon Patriots as if they were happy with the king and Patriots needed freedom to get rid of all the British taxes. This caused a problem in the American Revolution because not all Americans were on the same side.
