Colonies were concerned about a standing army because they viewed it as a potential tool of oppression that could be used by the British government to enforce its will and quash dissent. Many colonists believed that a professional army could undermine local militias and the rights of self-governance, fostering fear of military tyranny. Additionally, the presence of British troops was seen as an imposition on their liberties, particularly given the costs associated with supporting them, which often fell to the colonies.
