Samuel Adams.
Two of the most outspoken critics of the Stamp Act were Patrick Henry and Samuel Adams. Patrick Henry famously declared that taxation without representation was tyranny, while Samuel Adams organized protests and helped form the Sons of Liberty, which opposed British taxation policies. Their efforts played a significant role in galvanizing colonial opposition to the Stamp Act and fostering a sense of American unity against British rule.
The belief that the American colonies should have direct representation in Parliament was championed by figures like James Otis and Samuel Adams. They argued that taxation without representation was unjust, asserting that colonists should have a voice in legislative decisions that affected them. This sentiment contributed to the growing unrest and ultimately the push for independence from British rule.
Samuel Adams and James Otis both agreed on the importance of opposing British taxation and asserting colonial rights. They believed that the Stamp Act and other forms of taxation without representation were unjust and violated the rights of the colonists. Both men were instrumental in mobilizing public sentiment against British rule and advocating for colonial resistance, setting the stage for the American Revolution. Their collaboration helped to unite colonists in their fight for independence.
Patrick Henry and Samuel Adams were both prominent figures in the American Revolution who strongly opposed British taxation without representation. Henry famously declared, "Give me liberty, or give me death!" emphasizing the belief that taxation imposed by a distant government was unjust when colonists had no voice in that government. Adams, a key organizer of resistance, argued that taxes levied by Parliament infringed on the rights of the colonists, advocating for the principle that only their own colonial assemblies should have the authority to impose taxes. Together, they galvanized public sentiment against British rule and laid the groundwork for the revolutionary movement.

Samuel Adams
I think Samuel Adams or........ King George!
Colonists in Boston decided to protest the townshend acts. They called for a boycott of British goods. Samuel Adams led the boycott.
The British antagonized them with many things. The biggest were taxes levied to help pay for the French and Indian War, and the Boston Massacre. The Boston Massacre occurred in Boston when drunken British officers were accused, put on trial, and found not guilty of killing colonist. Samuel Adams made this act sound bigger than it really was by calling it a Massacre and passing out handbills showing the event. The thing is that you have to remember is that EVERYONE was British, yet they felt disrespected by the King.
