Both 'hung' and 'hanged' are correct, although the term 'hanged' tends to be an older form. For example, history books tell of convicts and bushrangers who were sentenced to be hanged. Magistrates would sentence a man "to be hanged by the neck until he is dead".

Can i have more information on Benjamin Franklin's statement Gentlemen you must all hang together or else you shall hang separately?
I am not sure if that was the exact quotation. I'm pretty sure it was something like "we must all hang together, or most assuredly, we shall all hang separately." It was spoken in response to a comment by John Hancock at the signing of the Declaration of Independence, who said they must all hang together, stressing that there must be unanimity in support of independence. Franklin's quote was a play on those words, joking that if they did not hang together, they would be hanged separately for treason.
Who said you must indeed all hang together or assuredly you shall all hang separately?
Benjamin Franklin's statement, "You must all hang together, or assuredly you shall all hang separately" was made at the signing of the Declaration of Independence on July 4th 1776 and meant that if they did not band together in the fight for independence, they would all be hanged separately for Treason by the British government.Most Americans were British. At the peak of the independence movement, only 1/3 of the British colonists favored the cause. Of the balance, half remained loyal and half never chose sides (which suggests they did not support the treason, so they too remained loyal).Initially, it was not a revolution. Rather, the initial goal was for colonial independence, not the overthrow of the national government of Great Britain. However, as things progressed, it evolved into a revolutionary war to reject the British Government and establish an entirely new and separate independent United States of America.

Because everyone who signed the declaration of independence, knew they would be hung if Great Britain won the revolutionary war.

What did the patriots of the revolution fear?
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.
