Benjamin Franklin
Paxton Boys and Regulators
They were protesting the failure of the Pennsylvania government to provide any protection from hostile Indians. Benjamin Franklin convinced them to disband.
If you are talking about the "Paxton Boys Massacre" in Pennsylvanian, it was a group of 22 Susquehannock Indians they massacred in 1763.

The March of the Paxton Boys was a direct result of the growing anger of Frontiersmen toward Indians, in response to the government indifference to complaints by the Frontiersmen.
The paxton boys were one of the first racial supremist groups. They had an intense hatred for Native Americans and slaughtered many of them and caused lots of problems for the Pennsylvanian government. If you have a Barnes and Noble or Books A Million or a Borders or any other book store like that you can go and get a book called "Massacre of the Conestogas" by: Jack Brubaker. It tells you the history of the Paxton Boys and their relationship with the Natives and the Gocernment.
