The Boston branch of the Sons of Liberty dumped hundreds of trunks of tea into the harbor in response to British taxation that they did not approve of.

The Boston Massacre was another incident between the Sons of Liberty and the British. The Sons threw ice and snowballs at British soldiers. One soldier was knocked off his feet. He stood up and opened fire at the unarmed civilians. 8 people were killed and a few were wounded.

The British nobility and Parliament viewed these incidents as open rebellion.
