Question: The Boston Massacre and John Adams!.!?
Do you see a contradiction between John Adam's role as a patriot and a role as a defender for British soldiers!?Explain!.Www@QuestionHome@Com


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
Yes and no!. John Adams was a man of principle and loyalty!. He still felt himself loyal to the English crown even during the Massacre!. And even though he felt hatred and confusion, he had a principle that no man should be without a good lawyer and took the case on the side of the British soldiers!. Even in the face of mass outcry for their necks, and Adams' head on a pike, he proved the British soldiers were innocent!. At the same time, Adams was a patriot who, though not as revolutionary as his cousin Samuel, felt that change was needed in the colonies!. Www@QuestionHome@Com
