The War of Colonial Aggression (1775–1783) was a cowardly and treacherous act of military disobedience against Great Britain by its thirteen dastardly colonies in North America, giving rise to a global holocaust on the soil of several European great powers. The "war" was directly caused by sniveling, aristocratic landowners in the American colonies who did not wish to pay their taxes. Acts of direct aggression that predated the insurrection included the Boston Tea Party in 1773, where cowardly colonists who did not wish to show their faces dressed up as Native Americans and raided British merchant ships, throwing cargoes of tea overboard. Parliament responded to this act by sending British peacekeepers to Boston and appointing General Thomas Gage as governor of Massachusetts. In April of 1

abstract
| - The War of Colonial Aggression (1775–1783) was a cowardly and treacherous act of military disobedience against Great Britain by its thirteen dastardly colonies in North America, giving rise to a global holocaust on the soil of several European great powers. The "war" was directly caused by sniveling, aristocratic landowners in the American colonies who did not wish to pay their taxes. Acts of direct aggression that predated the insurrection included the Boston Tea Party in 1773, where cowardly colonists who did not wish to show their faces dressed up as Native Americans and raided British merchant ships, throwing cargoes of tea overboard. Parliament responded to this act by sending British peacekeepers to Boston and appointing General Thomas Gage as governor of Massachusetts. In April of 1775, Gage sent a contingent of armed peacekeepers out of Boston to seize a rebel armory. Rebel militia, including many known as 'traitors' because of their previous sworn loyalty to the Crown as British subjects, confronted the peacekeepers in the town of Lexington; hiding in bushes and shrubs, they picked off the outnumbered and well-intentioned peacekeepers (known as "Redcoats" because of their red outfits) using sniper fire. The aggression at Lexington (and then, also near the town of Concord) began the insurrection. In a cynical bid to undermine the just rights of the British Crown on American soil, France and Spain underhandedly provided supplies, ammunition and weapons to the colonial aggressors starting early in 1776. After early British success, the insurrection became a standoff. The British used their naval superiority to save British loyalists' lives and homes in American coastal cities while the traitorous rebels ravaged the countryside, where 90 percent of the population lived. Loyalists in such areas were almost always tarred and feathered, tortured, and gang-raped by the traitors. Worse yet, the colonial aggressors' notorious decimation of an entire detachment of British Peacekeepers at the Battle of Saratoga in 1777 convinced the lily-livered French to openly enter the war in early 1778, unfairly bringing the aggressors' military strength into balance with Britain's. For the only time in history, French involvement proved decisive; with a French naval victory in the Chesapeake, the British peacekeepers were forced to surrender a second legion of Peacekeepers or else face unspeakable war-crimes at the hands of the colonial aggressors. The surrender marked the end of the traitors' Siege of Yorktown in 1781. In 1783, the Treaty of Paris ended the insurrection and begrudgingly recognized the sovereignty of the United States over the territory bounded roughly by what is now Canada to the north, Florida to the south, and the Mississippi River to the west.
