The colonist were upset with England for many reason. The colonist were mad at England because the government would tax them without them knowing or without their permission. The government created a series of laws for taxes. Some of the laws that they created lead to actions like the Boston Tea party.

The colonists were upset with England because their Parlement kept passing laws that were taxing the colonists without their consent. The colonists would of been fine with the taxes, but the Parlement did not ask the colonists if they wanteed to be taxed.

The colonists were upset with England because Parliament was taxing them without their consent known in the phrase as "Taxation without Representation". The colonies did not have Representatives like our present day government, because of this colonists didn't have a voice in Parliaments decisions. As Parliament began placing taxes on items for trade in the colonies, colonists grew angry and began to boycott the Acts. The colonists wanted to be heard and began to voice their opinions of the taxes through boycotts. The colonists joined together in protest.

The colonists were upset with England because Parliament kept passing laws that were taxing the colonists without their permission.The colonists made a phrase that describes this, "No taxation without Representation". Over time the colonists grew more and more angered over all of the new tax laws that were being issued, so the colonists started to boycott Goods being made over seas,dumping tea of of ships coming over to Boston, frightening tax collectors so they didn't have to pay taxes.

The colonists were upset with England because the Parliament raised taxes without the colonists knowing. They soon started to startle the tax collectors that way they wouldn't have to give anything. The Parliament also told them where they had to buy their tea and other supplies. The colonists didn't agree, so about 5 of the colonists took tea off of loaded ships and dumped them into the Boston Harbor which was called The Boston Tea Party.

The colonists were upset with the British because of taxation without representation. The colonists disliked all the acts and taxes that were passed by the Parliament because they didn't have a say on what was taxed or what restrictions were made for them.

The colonists were so upset with the English because they kept getting taxed by them so the colonists were always protesting. The English taxed paper, tea glass, lead, paint, and some other goods most colonists wanted. The biggest protest the colonists made was the Boston Tea Party. The worst part is that the Parliament taxed the colonists without their consent, John Adams and James Otis called it "Taxation without Representation."

The colonists were upset with England because the English kept taxing the colonists without asking them and forcing them to stay under the rule of the king and parliament. The colonists wanted to be independent and trade with countries other than England, so basically, the colonists did not like the English controlling them.

The colonists were upset with England because they kept taxing the colonists and kept passing Acts. England was taxing everything such as sugar, tea, stamps, etc. In result to all of this taxing, the colonists held boycotts, which were their most common way of protesting the laws that the British passed. This worked most of the time, but the British still kept passing all sorts of laws that the colonists didn't agree on. This kept the tension going

The colonists were upset with England, one of the reasons for their for the hatred going back and forth was that the Parliament of England was making the colonists pay taxes for things like tea, glass, stamps, etc. Colonists tried rebelling in many ways like the Boston Tea Party when the Sons of Liberty dumped the taxed tea in the harbor. Parliment was still very keen on keeping the colonies under their own control, but the colonists wanted freedom.

The colonists were upset with the England because of all the taxation they were put through and because they were forced to be taxed, they had "taxation without representation". so they did the Boston tea party.

The colonists were angry at England because England kept taxing them without asking them. The colonists thought that England didn't have the right to tax them without their permission. Then even when England knew how the colonists felt, they kept on taxing them and controlled things like where they bought their tea and who they could trade with. The colonists rebelled against many of their laws and rules which made England even madder. The colonists wanted to make decisions for themselves.

England was pushing the colonists around and treating them unfairly, mainly by taxing them. They took away their rights and made the colonists feel small and powerless in a big world.

The colonists were mad at England because England was asking for taxes without the Colonists approval and some of the laws that were passed restricted the colonists freedom of trade, politics, and everyday life. Then the colonists rebelled and that made the English even angrier.
