The colonists protested the passage of the Tea Act. One infamous event was the Boston Tea Party, in which protesters destroyed a shipment of tea.
The colonists were angry because of the famous line "no taxation without representation." Britain kept passing acts and the colonists had no say. The Sugar Act and Townshend Acts had been passed before the Stamp Act. In the end, Britain did repeal (get rid of) the Stamp Act, but then passed an act requiring the colonists to house British soldiers.
The colonists reacted to the quartering by protesting, threatening to kill the king, killing some of the soldiers, refusing to house the soldiers, feed them and give them their clothing and bedding.

The Coercive Acts which were called The "Intolerable Acts." by the colonists. The first: Boston Port bill, closed the port of Boston, Administration of Justice Act, The Massachusetts Government Act, Quartering Act, The Quebec Act.
The Intolerable or Coercive Acts were designed to whip the colonies back into compliance with the rules and regulations mandated by the British Parliament. They did this to punish Massachusetts by closing the port of Boston until tea was paid for them this had happened 1774. After Great Britain passed the Tea Act, which was a tax on imported tea, the colonists reacted very negatively. After the Boston Tea Party, in which thousands of dollars of tea was wastefully dumped into the sea, Great Britain passed the intolerable acts- also known as the coercive acts. The Intolerable acts allowed British troops to stay quartered in the Colonies, and also closed the Boston Port until the tea damages were repaid.

If King George III had reacted differently, there probably wouldn't have been a war. Therefore, there might not even be a United States because we'd still be ruled by Great Britain.
