the colonists were blood-thirsty and were pushing the scared soldiers to shoot, but they didn't have to. they pulled the triggers, not the colonists.

Since Captain Preston didn't order his men to fire, I believe the colonists were responsible.

The Boston Massacre can be seen in the light of a fight between two petty middle schoolers with attitude. One started picking and instigating the other one into a fight, until the other one actually fired shots and ended the fight. They were both sent to the principal's office, and the principal would find that both sides were responsible.

Soldiers????

Based on the documents, I believe the colonist started the conflict by provoking the soldiers. Due to the chaos they caused, it led to the death of a few.

The evidence points out that the colonists were antagonizing the soldiers and creating a more heated, confusing situation.

I think everyone involved was responsible because if the colonists hadn't protested, it wouldn't have happened, but the colonists wouldn't have protested if they were being treated fairly, and so on.

The colonists

based on the evidence, the fault could go to both sides

I think that the colonists were responsible for the Boston Massacre because they were yelling at the British and were throwing snowballs at them.

Based on the evidence, the citizens in the crowd were responsible for the massacre. The citizens were harassing and assaulting the soldiers by threatening them, throwing snowballs and rocks at them, and even attacking one of the soldiers with a stick.

I think that the colonists were antagonizing the soldiers but the soldiers should have kept their cool. There are two sides to this story in my opinion.

# data[].attributes.body
The colonists and the soldiers were responsible for the Boston Massacre because they both made bad decisions. The colonists were antagonizing the British soldiers and attacking them, while the soldiers were scared and even without orders shot off their guns.

# data[].attributes.body
Based upon the evidence, the Bostonians were responsible for the Boston Massacre because they taunted the soldiers into shooting.

# data[].attributes.body
Based on the evidence from the documents , I believe that the colonists began to provoke the soldiers and they only began to shoot out of fear.
