The Bostinians were angry with the British troops in their town because the British were taxing them heavily in order to pay for the cost of the French and Indian war. The British used methods like the Stamp Act and the Navigation Acts to get more money. When the British saw the colonists getting angrier and getting close to the state of rebellion, they sent in troops to Boston to control the colonists. This eventually caused the Boston Massacre, in which seven British soldiers fired into an American crowd, killing five colonists.
