the colonists were mad!!. they thought the only people who can tax them were
their representatives
Keep in mind that the colonists weren't mad because of the Stamp Act Congress. They set up the stamp act congress in reaction to the Stamp Act, which was an internal tax set up by the British that taxed all paper goods by making a British stamp required on all paper good in the colonies.
Colonists attended the Stamp Act Congress of 1765. The Stamp Act Congress was held in New York City in October of 1765.
The Stamp Act Congress was formed in October 1765 after the British government passed another tax on the Colonists. The Congress was formed to determine how to react.
