What did the British do to cause the Boston massacre?
The British caused it by being in Boston. Red Coats get relatively no pay so they competed for jobs with the Bostonians. That, and the stress of taxes (Sugar and Stamp Acts) caused a lot of hostilities towards the British. A mob started throwing things at guards outside the custom house. Major Pitcairn tried to keep his troops from firing back, but they did anyway. When one person fired, others followed. It's important to remember that the British directly involved did nothing but compete for jobs. They were under attack from ice balls, stones, anything the mob could throw, they did. Paul Revere's picture where the Bostonians looked completely innocent was not what really happened. It was propaganda to antagonize Britain.
