INSURGENT. One who is concerned in an insurrection. He differs from a rebel
in this, that rebel is always understood in a bad sense, or one who unjustly
opposes the constituted authorities; insurgent may be one who justly opposes
the tyranny of constituted authorities. The colonists who opposed the
tyranny of the English government were insurgents, not rebels.
