In order to force the British to evacuate the city.
Because in the past the British soldiers do not want Boston and they put Boston to pay taxes. The Boston colonists were forced to quarter the British soldiers. Quartering refers to housing and feeding them.
the boston massacre was when british soldiers were positioned in the colonies and colonists didnt want them there. colonists started poking them and hitting them with sticks so they fired their muskets, killing 5 people
he was one of very few to die in the Boston massacre

The Boston Tea Party was actually not a war. Here is what it was, and what happened. The Tea Act passed. The colonists did not want to pay taxes. So, here is where the Boston Tea Party kicks in, one year after the Tea Act. Here is what you've been waiting for! The Boston Tea Party was an event that was three boats full of colonists. They cut open chests of tea and they dumped it in the Boston Harbor (harr-berr)! The colonists had to pay it off. So, the colonists named that law the Intolerable(in-toll-err-a-bowl) Act. So, the Boston Tea Party was not a war, but it was an event that the colonists responded to the Tea Act.
The colonists were outraged when the British taxed the colonists (after the French Indian War) crazy amounts. The British had a large tax on the colonists favorite drink, tea. So the colonists dumped a ton of tea off a British ship in Boston Harbor to make the point that they did not want to be taxed so heavily.
The Quartering Act caused tension between the troops and the colonists. The colonists didn't want to have the troops invade their homes but the reason they were even their was to enforce the Townshend Act.
The Tea Act was passed and the colonists did not want to buy any more British tea .
