Who was in the wrong here?

Nobody. Americans just wanted sovereignty. I think a people that yell liberty and freedom while holding onto slavery seems a little hypocritical in my opinion.

The fucking MEXICANS.
Goddamn spicks.
The British model had always been to run colonies as a for-profit enterprise.
The colonists didn't want to contribute that profit.
Like everything in history, economic concerns drove social and political events.
Under modern international law, the colonists would be justified, because right to self determination.
Also, it doesn't make sense to have a place that's capable of self governing run from a capital that's across an ocean. Even in the modern era, that shit just wouldn't work, let alone in the age of sail.
The rebels because it was basically tax avoidance and also leads to genocide of native Americans rather than diplomacy the British employed

>throw tea into ocean like a bunch of babies
>chimp out because the soldiers retaliated to you throwing rocks at them
>cheat, ambush, and snipe at the opponent who is doing you the honor of respecting their own rules of engagement even though you're rebelling against their sovereignty

Never afford your enemy any advantage. Ever. No fight is a game.
This is why you lost.

I'm pretty sure RoE during WW2 was that bombing cities was perfectly kosher.

History is all one giant hypocritical moral gray mess 99% of the time.
Its not who was right or who was wrong, its who succeeded and survived.
