No taxation without representation
The Stamp Act and the Sugar Act were both enacted by the British Parliament in the early 1760s as a means to generate revenue from the American colonies to help pay off debts from the French and Indian War. The Sugar Act of 1764 aimed to reduce the existing tax on molasses while enforcing stricter regulations on smuggling, while the Stamp Act of 1765 imposed direct taxes on a wide range of printed materials, including newspapers and legal documents. These acts fueled colonial resentment and resistance, as they were seen as violations of their rights, leading to widespread protests and the rallying cry of "no taxation without representation."

One significant act of the British government that denied colonial freedom was the Stamp Act of 1765. This legislation imposed direct taxes on the American colonies without their consent, leading to widespread protests and the rallying cry of "no taxation without representation." The act exemplified British disregard for colonial self-governance and fueled growing resentment towards British rule, ultimately contributing to the push for independence.
British colonists were upset about the Stamp Act of 1765 because it imposed direct taxation on a wide range of printed materials, including newspapers and legal documents, without their consent. They believed this violated their rights as Englishmen, as they had no representation in Parliament to voice their objections. The rallying cry of "no taxation without representation" emerged, reflecting their frustration over being taxed by a distant government. This discontent ultimately fueled the growing desire for independence from British rule.
George Grenville initiated the Stamp Act in 1765 primarily to raise revenue for Britain to help pay off debts from the Seven Years' War and to cover the costs of maintaining British troops in North America. The act required colonists to purchase special stamped paper for legal documents, newspapers, and other publications, which angered many colonists who viewed it as a direct tax without their consent. This move ultimately contributed to growing tensions between Britain and the American colonies, leading to widespread protests and the rallying cry of "no taxation without representation."

"Crier" and "cry" are words that come from translating a French word to English as "to cry out." The French verb crier in turn comes from the Vulgar Latin crītāre and ultimately from the ancient Latin quirītāre for "to cry out in protest" or "to make a public cry."
