the colonists shouldnt have to feel that their freedom was threatened
As Prime Minister of England, George Grenville was responsible for the Stamp Act of 1765, which taxed the American colonies. The colonists opposed the tax because their representatives had not been consulted about the Stamp Act.
Yes. The stamp act was part of the Revolutionary. Since it's part of the revolutionary and George Washington was part of the Revolutionary, then he was part of the stamp act.
George Greenville was the Prime Minister of Great Britain from 1763-1765. George's first act on the colonies was the Stamp Act of 1765 that taxed the colonies.
King George the 3rd was a British king. People known as "Loyalists" were loyal to the king. Others were called "Patriots" those were the people that hated the king (because of the stamp act, ask to find about the stamp act!).
King George repealed the Stamp Act in 1776. He repealed this act for many reasons. One reason was because the King noticed that the colonists were protesting. Samuel Adams led a mob, that protested against the Stamp Act. The Sons of Liberty (a group of people who hated the Stamp act) tar'd and feather'd the tax collectors and burned the taxes and the tax collectors homes.

It was George Washington on the 10 cent stamp in 1847.
King George III
The very first US stamp pictures Washington. It was a 5 cent black stamp. Benjamin Franklin was pictured on the 10 cent stamp.
The British government took away the stamp act because the Colonists were protesting. The colonists started to destroy lots of things until they found their way. They captured British stamp makers and killed them. The colonists started boycotts against British goods. Then, the British merchants started to complain to king George about how their not going to do business anymore. So, king George took away the stamp act.
