On the winter night of December 16, 1773 Samuel Adams and the sons of liberty went on three ships (Dartmouth, Eleanor, and the Beaver) in the Boston harbor threw 342 boxes of tea over the ship because they did not want to pay the taxes that the British asked for. All of the tea they threw cost $18,000. This made Britain more tempted to start another war. The tea that they threw came from china. After doing all of that none of the participants got a punishment!

The Quartering Act of 1765 was issued by the British Parliament after receiving a plea from Lieutenant-General Thomas Gage, who found it difficult to persuade colonial assemblies to pay for the living quarters of his troops. This act required colonists to house British troops with the barracks provided by the colonies. If that was not enough for all the soldiers, they were to go to public houses, such as bars or ale houses. If that was still not enough, they could "make fit for the reception of his Majesty’s forces" and inhabit any abandoned farmhouses and such. However, the popular image of Redcoats tossing colonists of their bunks represents the unfair treatment.

The colonists contradicted with the unfair taxing. "No taxation without representation!" was the cry. They decided to act against the laws. They knew that no colony acting alone could effectively send a message to the king and Parliament. Eventually James Otis, one of the most passionate and effective protectors of American rights suggested to agree on a united course of action. With that suggestion, the Stamp Act Congress began in October 1765. The Congress seemed at first to be a complete failure.

The British Parliament passed the Stamp Act on March 22, 1765. This new tax led to many unheard cries of protests from the American colonists, since they had no place in the British government. The Stamp Act forced every American colonist to pay taxes on printed paper, such as ship's papers, legal documents, licenses, newspapers, other publications, and even playing cards were taxed. The money collected by the British monarchs payed the costs for the 10,000 troops protecting the American frontier next to the Appalachian Mountains.

On April 5, 1764, Parliament, people in Great Britain that wanted to change the country, passed a modified version of the Sugar and Molasses Act (1733), which was about to expire. The Molasses Act forced colonial merchants to pay a tax of six pence per gallon on the importance of molasses. Later, they decided to avoid the taxes and instead undersold the intention of taxing — that the English product would be cheaper than the product from the French West Indies. This hurt the British West Indies' market in molasses, sugar, and rum, which the colonies had been producing with the cheaper French molasses. The Sugar Act reduced the rate of tax on molasses from six pence per gallon to three pence per gallon, but also listed more foreign goods to be taxed such as sugar, certain wines, coffee, and more. They wanted to force importers to buy molasses from British colonies instead of smuggling it from competing French and Spanish colonies.

The attack on March 5, 1770, in which the redcoats (a nickname for British soldiers stationed in the 13 colonies) shot and killed angry patriots while under attack by a mob, is known as the Boston Massacre, or the Incident on King Street by the British. The incident was greatly propagandized by leading patriots, such as Paul Revere, who later painted "The Bloody Massacre on King Street", to fuel animosity toward the British authorities (the British King was greatly angered by Paul Revere's painting).
