4. The U.S. had the Torries -or- British loyalists
and they, also, were not treated very kindly.
The problem with revolutions is that the "overthrown" more often than not, don't just quietly into the night. They continue to resist and there in lies the problem. The effort to squelch them often mimics the same tactics they used to hold on to power. The problem seems to be one of identifying who represents a legitimate threat to the revolution and how to deal with them.
