Which abuse committed by King George III was most resented by the colonists?
One of the most resented abuses committed by King George III was the imposition of taxation without representation, exemplified by acts such as the Stamp Act and the Townshend Acts. Colonists were angered by being taxed to pay for British debts and military presence without having any elected representatives in Parliament to voice their concerns. This perceived tyranny fueled the desire for independence and contributed significantly to the American Revolution. The rallying cry of "no taxation without representation" encapsulated their frustration and demand for self-governance.

Which was a major grievance of the colonists against Great Britain?
Basically, the colonists felt that their rights as free British citizens were being taken away.Colonists had been living in America and largely governing themselves for 150 years and were satisfied with British rule.About 1760 the British were fighting the French for control of Canada and the territory west of the Appalachian Mountains. The French were urging Indians to fight the colonists. The British formed an army of colonists to help in the defense. They and the British defeated the French.The trouble started when the British decided that the Americans should be taxed to help pay for the war. The taxes were much less than Americans pay today, but the Americans felt that they were being treated as foreigners because they had no members in the British parliament. Their motto became "No taxation without representation."One early incident was the "Boston Tea Party". A group of Americans, dressed as Indians, boarded a ship from England loaded with taxed tea and threw it all into the harbor.While the Americans pleaded for years with the British government and people, the British kept sending troops, including German mercenaries, forced the colonists to keep the soldiers in their homes, and tried to destroy the Americans' arms and ammunition. Armed incidents kept increasing. American men, trained by the British, were ready to form their own army.As listed in the Declaration of Independence (July 4, 1776), the British king, George III, was crippling the American governments, inciting Indian attacks against colonists, burning towns, taking British soldiers who committed crimes safely home to England, and sending more and more troops and mercenaries.The Declaration basically said that it appeared that he wanted to enslave us, and that if we were going to be treated like enemies and not like free British citizens, then we would quit being British citizens."We ... declare that these united colonies are, and of right ought to be, free and independent states."

What rights did America feel great Britain violated?
The new acts Britain imposed on the colonists were not liked. They were protested and hated. The colonists didn't want to be taxed without representation. Britain thought they were being ridiculous. On the other hand colonists thought they were right and they thought Britain was violating there rights. These are the acts that violated the colonists rights. The stamp act of 1765 placed new duties on legal documents such as wills, diplomas, and marriage papers. It also taxed newspapers, almanacs, playing cards, and even dice. The colonist did not like the law because they did not want to pay more taxes. Britain on the other hand thought they should help pay for the costs of the French and Indian war. So colonists said that in the Magna Carta there is a principle that says " No taxation without representation". So since they had no representatives in parliament they could not pass any new taxes on them without them having a say in it. The writs of assistance allowed officers to inspect a person's property without giving a reason. Colonists protested that the writs of assistance violated their rights as British citizens. Under British law, a government official could not search a person's property without having a good reason for suspecting that the person had committed a crime. Colonists angry lily cited the words of James Otis of Massachusetts. The quartering acts was passed so colonists would give soldiers stationed in the colonies housing, candles, bedding, and beverages. Colonists protested against this new law especially. They didn't like this new act because they did not want to keep soldiers or strangers in their houses because they were afraid of them. Colonists refused to obey the law but especially in New York. This act violated the colonists right because in the English bill of rights it says that the people are not responsible for aiding or housing an army. These are the acts that violated the colonists rights. The stamp act violated the colonists rights because in the Magna Carta there is a principle that says " No taxation without representation".
