Hey is Skydoesminecraft, typing in a answers that some people will notice! :D
After the Boston Tea Party, the British clamped down on the Massachusetts colony, and passed what came to be known as the Intolerable Acts. Most colonists were outraged by them; they seemed far too harsh and unjust: colonists felt that the acts strangled commerce and trade, and treated the people of Massachusetts like convicted criminals. Some of the colonists mounted protests, and many refused to comply with these new laws. A few of the more influential colonists, including John Hancock, even wrote to the royal authorities to demand that these acts be repealed immediately. But when nothing seemed to work, the Intolerable Acts led the colonists to decide a revolution was necessary.
they made the navigation act that said that England get some of the profit
The Townsend Acts really miffed some colonists. They revolted. But they were also afraid of being caught or blamed. So they dressed up like Indians and dumped tea into the harbor; they could then blame Native Americans as being the scoundrels, not the colonists, who would be punished, perhaps hung for being unruly to the King's authority.
