No, the colonists didn't agree with the Sugar Act and Stamp Act. The colonists protested because each act put taxes on stamps, sugar, molasses and more. Colonists thought it was unfair to them because the British were taxing them. They protested at the side of more acts and they eventually had the Revolutionary War.

The colonists were opposed to any tax imposed on them by Great Britain. In addition to voicing their opposition, the colonists also boycotted trade with Great Britain.
The stamp and sugar act happened because the british were taxing the colonists on little things such as stamp and sugar. The colonists, of course, protested. This lead to the Boston Tea Party.

The colonial reaction to the sugar act was smuggling sugar and molasses.
