They actually didn't really reason with them. It was more the british crown that tried to point out the error in their ways.
However, despite lacking logic, the Colonists mostly insisted that they deserved equal representation in parliament, ironic since the common person in England was taxed more and had less access to democratic processes than the average colonial.
Basically, the Colonials said "We want less taxes and more power than everyone else because that is what everyone else has." Do you see logic in that?

Did the colonists win the battle of lexingon?
Whether or not the colonists won the Battle of Lexington is arguable. The colonists at Lexington numbered about 70, and were primarily normal citizens, not trained soldiers. When the professional British military showed up, the man in change of the militia told the colonists to disband, for they were no match for the superior British force: a massive military force of highly trained troops. As the colonists headed back to their houses, a shot rang out, from which side it is unknown. A general, non-ordered fire resounded from the British, and a small amount of colonists were in the position to fire back. Many colonists died, but the only British casualty was the commanding officer's horse. After this initial confrontation, the British pushed onward to Concord, destroying a meager amount of stashed weapons and supplies. As the British returns to their base however, they were constantly sniped from all sides. The British went on to loose hundreds of men as they trudged back to their barracks. As while the initial confrontation went badly, the British lost more men in total than the colonists did. The British also watched as everywhere around them became suddenly hostile, people shot at them from houses, behind walls, from basically everywhere. The Psychological aspect of this fact must have been pretty substantial as well. So did the British win the actual "battle" of Lexington. It depends on what you still consider as part of the battle. Hopefully an expect will come along and revise this answer to give you a straight-to-the point answer, but that's all I got.
