Best Answer

During the British rule over the 13 colonies, the Townshend Duties were imposed. One was the tea tax, but it also was a tax on things such as paper and paint. The Boston Massacre was a result of colonists being angry at the British for enforcing it, so they were complaining to the soldiers on duty in front of the Customs House. The British, to protect themselves, took extreme measures when colonists attacked them, and shot.
