Was Tories a Patriot or loyalist?
Why I want to be a Patriot Do you wonder why I want to be Patriot? I'm writing about Patriots because they're interesting and unusual. I am going to write about unfair King George, independence, and the events that happened to the Patriots. First, as we all know, King George was unfair to the Patriots. The taxes were too high. The taxes really hurt our businesses. Our lawyers fought in court with the Loyalists because of how unfair the Loyalists' and King George's laws were. We didn't only fight about how unfair the laws were; we also fought about how the taxes were unfair, too. Also, King George appointed governors. King George was very unfair! Next, Independence was another important thing to the Patriots. Independence brought wealth and freedom to the Patriots. The Patriots thought independence was very important to them because businesses would be better and less unfair, than the Loyalists' businesses. Another reason why the Patriots thought independence was important is because if they were independent, they would have fewer taxes. The Patriots would at least lower the taxes! Finally, the Patriots had a very interesting life. They had many events happening in their lives. The Loyalists shot the Patriots. That was a very important event. Five people died, and six people got wounded. This event was called the Boston Massacre. Suddenly, the Patriots snuck to the Loyalists' houses because they wanted revenge on them, especially when they fired the bomb on us! Everyone knows about the Boston Tea Party. This event was one of the most important events in all of history! The Patriots were really mad about the really high taxes paid for everyday goods (tea), so they just dumped tea into the harbor! That was a very big waste, but that's how mad Patriots were about Loyalists! Hopefully, now you know why being a Patriot is better than being a Loyalist! Again, I would choose to be a Patriot, because the Loyalists were unfair (including King George), independence, and the Patriots had many events! Patriots are very interesting and fun to learn about!

How did guerrilla warfare affect the outcome of the battle of king's mountain?
The patriot militia including the over mountain men silently enveloped their forces to surround the loyalist militia at King's Mountain. Then the patriots attacked by surprise. The patriots charged up the hill by surprise while also firing their weapons from behind trees and stones. The loyalists were completely taken by surprise. They had very little defense including poorly built barricades because their leader Patrick Ferguson didn't think it was necessary to prepare for a possible patriot ambush. During the battle, the loyalists would make a bayonet charge down hill at the patriots. Since the patriots had no bayonets of their own, they would retreat down hill and melt back into the forests avoiding costly hand to hand combat. This happened three times. The patriot militia refused to go into hand to hand combat and would feign retreat every time the loyalists made bayonet charges. Then after the loyalists tire themselves out with the bayonet charge and full back to their camp, the patriots would regroup and attack the hill again. It was difficult for the loyalists to find a target to shoot at because the patriots constantly used cover and concealment with trees and rocks. Plus, the down hill angle of the hill caused the loyalists to over shoot and miss their targets a lot of the times. After the battle of King's mountain, the loyalists surrendered and the patriots claimed victory. The loyalist casualties were 290 killed, 163 wounded, and 668 captured. The patriot casualties were 29 killed and 58 wounded. The patriots were able to utilize guerrilla tactics by attacking by surprise, feigning retreats from costly hand to hand combat, and using cover and concealment within the environment while sniping loyalists who were poorly protected by their incomplete barricades. With such guerrilla tactics and warfare, the patriot conflicted way more casualties on the loyalists and were able to claim victory. Guerrilla warfare was one of the most important factors that helped the patriots claim victory at the battle of king's mountain.
Why are one third against the American Revolution?
During the American Revolution, there were three different groups: The Patriots were for the Revolution, the Loyalists were against the revolution, and the Neutralists didn't care. I don't know what fraction, but I bet the Loyalists took up a large portion of the people against the Revolution.

Since the colonists hated the townshed acts, they obviously tortured the loyalists working with the law. They buried them alive, boycotted, protested and took things to violent measures. Of course, the loyalists felt scared.
