By Aalyah a. Irvin b. Raymond g. Rocio b.

 Protests Like The Liberty Affair Made British Colonials officials nervous.  The many colonists, especially those living in Boston, felt that the British had pushed them to far.  First the British had passed a series of laws that violated colonial rights. To make matters worse, the soldiers stationed in Boston acted rudely and sometimes even violently toward the colonists.

 Relations Between The Redcoats and the Boston colonists Grew More Tense.  March 5,1770 the tension finally reached a peak.  The angry townspeople moved through the streets, picking up any weapon they could find sticks, stones, shovels, and clubs.

 Colonial leaders used news of the killing as propaganda information designed to influence opinion against the British.  The Boston massacre led many colonists to call for stronger boycotts on British goods.  Some colonial leaders, however continued to call for resistance to British rule.
