The air of the nation during those days as an English colony had built to a fever pitch with several other acts that placed a great number of new taxes on the colonies long before the Tea Act. It was this constant pressure from Britain that forced the colonies to act in defiance to the added taxes on tea and other goods of import. This constant barrage of new taxes really left nowhere else for the colonists to go but to war and I would have supported that belief also.

Many people live in free countries so they have the right to protest. Street protests allow lots of people to come together and march to make their point, whatever that may be. It also gets their cause a lot of public attention and sometimes can cause a change in policies and so their protests can be successful.

It protested England because of the raised taxes on Tea.

The British were not being fair and giving the colonies taxes that were too high (called taxation without representation). Therefore, the protesters were protesting England.

People had died only for violence.

I think it depends on how you are using violence for good or for bad.

Good violence is protecting you.

Bad violence is hurting someone for no reason.

It just depends on how you look at it.

to bring about policy change.

We can think of some songs of David in the Bible as "protest songs" in which he often complained and argued with God about trials and tribulations David encountered.

Certainly throughout history, humans have used music and lyrics to express displeasure with ruling powers, neighbors, family, and against God.

During American slavery, slaves created encoded songs as a way to carry messages of protest and hope to other slaves. Many songs were constructed to communicate the path for the Underground Railroad, for safe passage from the South to Northern States and Canada.

However, the "protest songs" of our generation had their roots in the 1960s when young men were drafted in the Vietnam War and many peace activists used music and song to spread the message against war. The protest era was strong through the 1960s but lessened in the 1970s and 1980s.

Protest remains one of the most vocal ways for some groups to communicate their displeasure with government (especially) or against any action a group feels is immoral, unethical, etc. Whether through music and song, letter campaigns, or peaceful protest marches, groups continue to make their voices heard.
