He didn't like British taxes and the action taken was lead the colonists through the Boston tea party but who knows I'm just a smart ten year old
They had the Boston tea partyThey had the Boston tea party. Where they threw the tea over bored, Because they didn't want to pay$ the taxes. Hope this helps.:)
Before the Boston Tea Party were the taxes of the colonial people. The saying "taxation without representation" comes from this time period. The colonial americans were paying an incredibly high amount of taxes BUT they were not allowed to have a representative in parliament. There were taxes on everything, paper, tea, etc. When tea started being taxed, the colonists had enough, so they dumped it overboard in the act called the Boston Tea Party.
To control the American colonists, the British government imposed a series of taxes and laws, such as the Stamp Act and the Townshend Acts, to generate revenue and assert authority. They also enforced strict trade regulations through the Navigation Acts, limiting colonial trade to British ships. Additionally, the British stationed troops in the colonies, particularly after events like the Boston Tea Party, to maintain order and suppress dissent. These actions fueled resentment and contributed to the growing calls for independence among the colonists.
Yes, because the people of the Boston Tea Party were angry at the British government after the Tea Act. +++ Yes because Boston was British at the time, and a very lawless place whose less charming inhabitants included a gang of hireable thugs who called themselves ironically the Liberty Boys! This was before American Independence; the so-called Tea Party were actually tea smugglers and their real gripe was with the genuine tea traders and the Government forming an arrangement to undermine the smuggling. Tea was costly then, and taxed, so attractive to smugglers.
it was a big reaction

Henry Knox brought cannons taken from Fort Ticonderoga to Boston, and the British evacuated after the colonists fired a few shots at them.

I would've taken the colonists side because if they won they would get FREEDOM.

Colonists were sick and tired of paying taxes, especially on tea. So patriots dressed up as Indians and dumped about 340 chests off the ship and into the ocean. Also, The action was taken to prevent the payment of a British-imposed tax on tea and to protest the British monopoly of the colonial tea trade authorized by the Tea Act.
