The Townshend Acts applied duties (taxes) to paper, paint, lead, glass, and tea imported by the colonies. Townshend had studied the colonist's distinction between internal and external taxes and he believed his duties were external as none of the products, except tea, could be made in the colonies. The colonists did not agree with his thinking and the result was a colonial boycott against British products. Trade between England and America fell off by 50 percent as a result of the boycott. The British merchants complained to Parliament who repealed the Townshend Duties except the tax on tea. The tea tax was kept in honor of the Declaratory Act. Parliament passed that act to declare that they did have the right to tax the colonies regardless of the American claim of internal or external taxation.

How did the British react to the colonists reaction?
The act that upset the colonists was the Stamp Act, putting tax on all printed material, and the Sugar Act further angered the colonists, as the English were trying to make a monopoly with molasses taxes. The colonists responded with a few kids throwing snowballs at the English soldiers, and they raised their guns. The snowballs were then filled with sharp objects, and a shot rang out, and that shot was known as the shot that started the Revolutionary War.
