In 1775 who was right the loyalists or patriots during the Boston massacre?
It was the patriots--Actually, it's a lot more controversial than that. The Patriots weren't that innocent, either. They were calling British troops names and pelting rocks at them. Some soldiers panicked and fired. The colonists had a right to be angry, but to throw things at them then later saying that the soldiers fired at unarmed protesters is a little strange. I'm not picking a side here, I'm just trying to prove that not everything the Patriots did was right or rational, in this case.
