Adams was not directly involved. The Son's of Liberty were organized and supported by two of the biggest smugglers in the colonies. They were Hancock and Hamilton and they were involved in smuggling items into the colonies. One of those was Dutch tea and until the British started tinkering with the price of tea they were doing very well, but the tax on the British tea was LOWERED so this made the price of the Dutch tea HIGHER. So, they arranged to have the boxes of tea thrown into Boston Harbor. This was an economic issue and not a political one and it makes sense when you think about it.
