When separating from england the supporters would use terrorism such as tar and feathering and railing to force the non-supporters to ban products or in general be disloyal to the crown.

Terror is a word used by Arabs and Middle Eastern people to replace the N word, as Arabs use the word without permission, so they created a new word, related to the misconceptions around their nationality. Terrors are absolute g's and bad mouthing a terror will get you gang banged. Never say the hard T.
Terrorism is the use of non-mandated pressure to achieve an outcome. It is NOT an act of war and generally has political motives. A group of bank robbers are not terrorists, nor are the legitimate armies of any country. The Vietnam war provides a good case and point; the US public initially approved of the action, then as casualties mounted, issues highlighted, the people themselves decided to change the government and stop the war, most definitely not terrorism of any kind. In many Arab, African and Latin countries, Terrorists engage in their actions regardless of government orders or the wishes of the majority of the people. They are ungovernable as they are sociopathic by definition.
When the people can vote out a government and end a war, that war is not terrorism.
The unabomber, suicide bombers, even Greenpeace and the like are terrorists; the U.S., Iraq, Pakistan as sovereign countries with a voting public governing policy are most definitely not.

The prince's bodyguard dropped his automatic machine pistol in the resulting scuffle outside the nightclub and sent it scuttling across the pavement, but fortunately it's safety catch held and potentially widespread harm from the terrorism was avoided.

A political weapon used as a means to inspire fear and terror within a person or group of persons, such as a nation. It may or may not involve the killing of innocent people or mass-scale destruction. Nonetheless, it is meant to weaken a nation or organization from the inside, rendering said nation vulnerable to outside attack.
Osama Bin Laden's display of terrorism on the World Trade Center was not intended simply to kill and destroy. It was the first step in a plan to cripple the United States and later dominate the nation, thus opening the gates for the REAL problems to spill through and spread worldwide.
