The Intolerable Acts were among several other factors that drove the founding fathers to pursue independence from the king. In addition to affirming the convictions of those who already supported the pursuit, the drafting of the constitution and the subsequent Bill of Rights protected citizens from experiencing a similar set of acts under the United States government (e.g. no soldier quartering, etc.).
