During the Boston Tea Party in 1773, British tea merchants and the British government were symbolically "tarred and feathered" by American colonists as a form of protest. The act of tarring and feathering was a violent form of public humiliation used against those perceived as loyal to British authority or as agents of oppression. The actual event involved colonists dumping an entire shipment of tea into Boston Harbor to oppose the Tea Act and British taxation without representation. The protest was aimed at demonstrating their resistance to British control and taxation policies.

The Sons of Liberty were the colonial smugglers so the people who bought from them liked them. When they threw the tea into Boston harbor many in Boston got mad at them because the British closed the port.
