Why You Should Rebel!

THE BOSTON TEA PARTY

  • I think the Boston Tea Party is fair since charging the British tea was unnecessary and King George the III just wanted this tax so he could pay off the debt for Britain's series of taxes. Not only that he taxed the tea beacause he wanted to save the British East India Company because the boycott going around hurt the company badly.

THE STAMP ACT

  • I think the stamp act is unfair because we should not be paying for items we need. I also think that we shouldn't be taxed on things that are very common to buy. Also he wanted to ensure power over the colony so he could be in charge either way.

THE FRENCH AND INDIAN WAR

  • I think the french and indian war is unfair because King George wanted to seprate us so we wouldn't create a war, but all he did was set boundaries to us. The thing is, most of us went there to be a free country and have no rules made from a tyrant ruler, yet he is still making us these laws/rules.

THE BOSTON MASSACRE

  • I think the Boston Massacre was not fair because the British Soldiers assumed that the locals were about to kill them while they weren't. In the process, five other colonists died since the British soldiers opened fire on them. It was also because of King George put soldiers in the colony, even though we went there to be our own colony. The reason he put soldiers in there is because he didn't like locals boycotting.
