The Intolerable Acts were attempts to levy direct taxes on Americans. The tax collectors paid for their jobs. The tax collectors attempted to collect many times the official amount of the tax. The Americans considered that intolerable. The tax collectors were given the right to enter houses and take what they wanted.
Actually, in order to understand the intolerable acts, you need to read the Constitution of the United States including the first 10 amendments. The rights granted there were not some wild theory. They were things the King wad doing to the colonists. Thus, when you read the prohibition against ex post facto legislation, that is what the King was doing. When you read about trials without a jury, without the defendant knowing the charges, without the defendant knowing who is testifying against him, and where the defendant does not have a lawyer, you understand the intolerable act. When you read about a legislator being arrested on the floor of congress for his opposition to a bill, that is there due to the intolerable acts.
The British Solders came out of the prisons. They were given a choice between joining the army and hanging. They were quartered in American homes. They frequently raped the women. The women did not like that.
The Revolution really got going when the British burned the towns of Charleston, Massachusetts, Norfolk, Virginia, and Elizabeth, North Carolina and Raped the women there. The Americans had enough.
the intolerable acts caused the revolutionary war because the Americans didnt want to pay taxes on tea which caused the Boston tea party. next the Americans resisted the taxes causeing the Americans to harras the british soldiers and british fought for defense causing the revolutionary war
The Intolerable Acts closed Boston's port, stopped town meetings, and allowed for British troops to move into colonists' homes and forced the colonists to support them (these were the main effects). All three generally damaged colonist life, and angered the colonists to the point of war.

After the Intolerable Acts, which consisted of the Tea Act, the Stamp Act, and the Quartering Act, the Boston Tea party happened. Then, the American Revolutionary War began.
They greatly despised and hated them. This was the main cause of the Revolutionary War (the Tea Act, the Stamp Act, the Sugar Act, the Declatory Act, and the Coercive Acts[Intolerable Acts])
Many things led up to the Revolutionary War in America, but the last straw was the "Intolerable Acts" and British pressure in Massachusetts.
The result from the intolerable acts was the meeting of the Second Continental Congress, the adoption of the Declaration of Independence, the naming of General George Washington as commander for the American Army, The American Revolutionary War, and the new nation of the United States of America.

It was the start to the revolutionary war. It basically started the war because the British were being unfair to the colonist. After that the 13 colonies banned together, thus started the revolutionary war.
The Intolerable Acts were a series of punitive laws passed by the British Parliament in response to the Boston Tea Party. The acts closed the port of Boston, restricted self-governance in Massachusetts, allowed British officials accused of crimes to be tried in England, and expanded the quartering of troops in private homes. These measures further fueled tensions between the American colonies and Britain, contributing to the outbreak of the American Revolutionary War.
