the Boston massacre was started by the British throwing snowballs.Answerthat's not true what really happend is they threw snowballs,ice chunks,and sticks and the colonists started the Boston Massacre

both of those are not true the Boston massacre started because a man did not pay his bill for a wig so he got in a huge fight and the people around heard a unpleasent fight around and everybody crouded around and everybody started to fight and it got really bad. liar

Youre all wrong. The boston massacre started when american protestors threw snowballs and stones at the British because they were occupying the city of Boston. The british fired without orders, killing five men. The whole wig thing is a myth. The guy actually had paid his bills the day before. Look it up.
