The colonists wanted the crown to provide troops to protect them as they pushed westward.

Like all of us, the colonists were a mixture of sunlight and shadows, baser motives and a few noble motives as well.

The genius of the American experiment is that we keep trying to come to terms with the baser motives while perfecting the noble.

Unless you’re MAGA, because you’re perfect already and the baser parts of our history are simply DEI libtards trying to paralyze you with guilt, and lying about our glorious ancestors who walked on water.
