This was not a planned event by the Son's of Liberty. One or two may have egged it on, but it was an event that just happened. Right after the tea tax was passed in a pub near the docks a group of people were complaining about the tax so they decided to throw the tea into Boston Harbor. They decided to meet at the docks, a few dressed up as Native Americans, and they boarded 3 ships. On one of the ships they knocked down a sailor who was guarding the ship and they threw chests of tea into Boston Harbor.
