I'm pretty sure in 1634, the Pequot Tribe killed an Englishman by the name of John Stone. Although John Stone wasn't very well liked by his fellow colonists, the Puritans were still affected by this and began to attack the Native Americans.
^^ I might be wrong though.

The Pequots didn't like how the English men took over their land and how thy held charges against them, so they started the Pequot Massacre! The legend says that they call it the Pequot Massacre because they wanted to name it after them, because they were the ones who were hurt! (not the English men)!
