The Boston Massacre likely was a legitimate case of the soldiers feeding for their lives and acting in self-defense in the middle of an angry mob that was attacking them.

And the person who successfully defended the British soldiers in Court was John Adams, who was no monarchist. He was later the leading figure in declaring independence and was the second President of the United States.
