How were the Boston massacre and the Boston tea party significant to the colonist?

Answer 1

Yes, because the people of the Boston Tea Party were angry at the British government after the Tea Act.

+++

Yes because Boston was British at the time, and a very lawless place whose less charming inhabitants included a gang of hireable thugs who called themselves ironically the Liberty Boys! This was before American Independence; the so-called Tea Party were actually tea smugglers and their real gripe was with the genuine tea traders and the Government forming an arrangement to undermine the smuggling. Tea was costly then, and taxed, so attractive to smugglers.

Answer 2

1. well its just because first if you know that the colonist had gotten mad because the Britain's were selling and making more money them. U should know how the tea came in part and to relate the parliament put back everything to make the tensiongo down.

Answer 3

Because innocent colonists died from British soldiers in the Boston Massacre, and the Boston Tea Party made the King furious and take away almost every right Boston had, so it made the colonists angry at Britain.

Answer 4

The king more or less looked at the colonies as a group of spoiled children after the Boston Tea party and approached the situation in that way. He figured after closing the port in Boston that the colonies would start to act "right", but Lexington and Concord proved that the problems ran deeper and added to this was Bunker Hill. The events taken together made the British take notice that there really was a problem and that they were at war.
