Did the colonist get their independence from the British government?

Yes, because Britain is treating the colonists unfairly, and the colonists have rights to stand up and take action! Britain is violating those right, and the colonists are doing nothing to stop them! If the colonists separate from Britain, they then get to make their own laws, have their own government, and freedom!

Maybe the British would lower the prices or make a compromise with the colonies.
