Answer 2

The correct answer to the request: Select the objections some Englishmen had to fighting the colonists, would be:

1. The colonists were Englishmen with families in England. This was probably one of the strongest reasons why many of the English did not wish to pursue a fight with the American colonists. After all, many of the migrants there were originally from England, or at least had a connection to family in England.

2. The American allianc with France threatened England. Even before the American Revolution, the English were already in conflict with the French. By starting a war with the Americans, the British knew they would be pushing their colonies further into French power, and also, that their forces would be divided between two consecutie fights.

3. The war cost more and lasted longer than the government had promised. The conflict with the Americans started even before the actual Revolution happened. Lots of British lives, and British property had already been lost. Now, with a full-blown war, costs were going up not just in actual market prices, but also in human lives. And the end of conflict was nowhere in sight. Also, now the British had two fronts of war open: Against the Americans and against the French, who supported the Revolution.
