Best Answer

The founding fathers were constantly afraid of being captured an executed by the British. I believe Franklin said:

"We must all hang together or we will all hang separately"

The hang separately part refers to actually being hanged.

Civilians who were patriots were openly abused by the British. Just like those who were more conservative and were loyalists were abused by Americans. Because of this many families had an American flag and a British flag. They would raise the American flag when the Americans were about and the British Flag when the British were about.
