Say you are one of the British soldiers. You have been sent to the colonies to protect the colonists who have settled there. One night a small group of them begin to pelt you with snowballs. No big deal, just ignore it. But, soon the snowballs become rocks and bricks, and the people are yelling out insults. Don't you think you would become pretty irritated? I mean, these are the people you are protecting from hostile Indians and French! Not that I agree with the soldiers killing these people, actually I think that they completely overreacted, but they probably thought that soon they could possibly be stoned to death. In addition, firing the weapons would do one of two things- not kill the colonists and simply scare them away, or kill them and end the riot. Unfortunately, the result was death, but to the Loyalists, at least the situation was controlled.
