Which person was the reason for the Boston Massacre?

No one person was responsable for the Boston Massacre. The Colonists were just fed up with the British, and how they kept taxing the colonies, even though most thought that they had no right to. During the Massacre, a large group of Colonists saw about five British soldiers, and threw snow and rocks at them. The Colonists provoked them enough to cause them to fire into the crowd. The soldiers were later charged for murder, but John Adams defended them in a trial and they were released.
