Lily, Julia & Bella

In 1765 The colonists were angry because the British troops didn’t care about there opinions, they just passed the quartering act law. The quartering act was a law that required the colonist to give the British troops a place to live, food, fuel, and transportation.

In 1765 the colonists were also angry about the stamp act because the stamp act stated that all the colonists had to pay a tax on printed papers. Newspapers, pamphlets, marriage licenses, and playing cards were taxed.

In 1770 the colonists were still angry that British troops were living in their cities and towns. The colonists thought that the soldiers were rude and rambunctious. The colonists thought the British troops were making their jobs and lives harder.

The colonists used the anger they had towards British troops by calling them names like “lobsterback” because of their red coats. Some of the soldiers made sure they went out of their way to annoy some local citizens. Name–calling and fistfights in the streets became very common. On the night of March 5, 1770, a British soldier was standing outside the customs house (a building where taxes were collected). A crowd began to gather. People started calling the soldier names. Some of them even threw stones and snowballs. Captain Thomas Preston and 7 of his soldiers hurried to their guard’s defense. They loaded their guns. But the crowd just kept taunting the soldiers. The colonist kept throwing snowballs and started chucking chunks of ice.

No one is exactly sure what happened after that. Some people think that the captain told his soldiers not to fire but one soldier did because he thought he heard the word “fire”. So he started to shoot into the crowd. When the crowd came closer the soldiers panicked and fired more shots. In a few moments five colonist were dead and many where injured.

 This relates to kids and there parents because the British are making the colonists do what they don’t want to do and sometimes that can happen with kids and their parents.  This also relates to kids and there parents because if they complained there job would get harder and same with kids and there parents.
