Writs of assistance – search warrants for smuggled or illegal goods. The colonists protested. Against John Locke’s law of nature.

Boston Massacre ,000 British soldiers (Redcoats) arrived in Boston. General Thomas Gage – British commander – colonist surrounded some soldiers in front of the state house. Soldiers fired – 5 killed – Crispus Attucks Colonists outraged. Soldiers put on trial. Defended by John Adams. Soldiers acquitted.

Economic Interference 1770 –Townshend Acts repealed. Tea Act – 1773 – gave East India Co., the exclusive right to sell tea in colonies. Committees of Correspondence formed to communicate with colonial leaders. Exchange secret letters on colonial affairs and resistance to British policy.

The Boston Tea Party Organized by Sons of Liberty. Disguised as American Indians – 342 chests of tea were dumped into the Boston harbor. British officials wanted to punish. Colonial leaders offered to pay for the tea if British ended the tax. Britain refused to compromise. Open rebellion ensues.
