The troopers !

The troopers had to be ready for action , they had to be mentalized that war was harda and tough and once they accepted going to war they had to be willing to be ready to give their lifes for their country , in this case we bring you a video that shows you how cruel and sad war was , from the movie the Patriot with the song The trooper in whcih says in its lyrics the cruelty red coats and colonists had to fight .
Red coats was the name given to the English troops , because of their strong recognized red army uniform , usually revolutionary colonists were recognized with a blue uniform .

Colonists Took actions

As obvious it can appear this " Intolerable acts " had a radical reaction on the colonists in which realized that they couldnt handle any more the fact they were to be controlled by British troops and Justice courts to be the point of income to the british , Fortunetly for Masachussetts that was in deep suffering and indignation the other colonies took action they started to have the point of view that British where a thread to their freedom .
Delegates from each colony met in Philadelfia . They made the first continetal congress in which included Patrick Henry here he said the famous quote " give me liberty or give me death . This brought unification between colonies , they joined in the same colony to get their freedom back by whichever means necessary this included George Washingtons idea of independance.

Intolerable Acts

The Intolerable Acts, as called by the colonists, were the response of the Brittish parliament to the Boston Tea Party and the various protests. These Intolerable Acts were five:

The BostonPort Act: This closed the Boston Port till the East India Company was paid for the lost tea. This created many difficulties for people whose lives and work depended on the Port.

Massachusetts Government Act: This act removed the Massachusetts Charter to lose alot of its independant self government. This angered the colonists for they were very proud of their independance from te crowd and the taking of that independance was an outrage.

Administration of Justice Act: The tird act stated that Brittish Officers accused of crime were to be taken to England to be put on trial. This was a measure by the Brittish to prevent the officers to be unfairly judged. However colonists interpreted this as a way for Brittich officers to escape crimes.

The Quartering Act: This stated that Brittish soldiers were allowed to be quartered in colonist building, including colonists omes if there was no space in other buildings.

The Quebec Act: This act extended the area of the province of Quebec. Quebec was the only province without representatives and this made the Brittish look like they wanted to extend their power over the colonies.

The Boston Tea Party

After the multiple violent protests and the product boycotts colonists finally succeeded in getting the crown to remove all taxes in 1770. All taxes but one: tea. This actually acted in favor of the prices of the tea. English tea had never been cheaper. However boycotts continued, colonists buying only German tea which was more expensive. Eventually, colonists realized they needed a public protest that showed they wouldn't give up on their ideals and principles, a public example.

In 1773 a cargo ship full of Brittish tea arrived Boston. The night before the arrival, a group of colonists led by Samuel Adams, called the Sons of Liberty, had a meeting discussing on the execution of the protest. December 16th, the ship arrived. The group of men who were dressed as Indians demanded access to the ship. They used their tomahawks to open trunks containing the tea. They then threw the tea off board into the Boston Harbor, 342 trunks. The disguises aside from being symbolic also worked to hide the identity of the colonists so the governor could not apprehend any of the participants.

King George and the Parliament were enraged, this act of disobedience couldn't be accepted. They would then impose a set of rules called the intolerable acts.

FOUNDING FATHERS

JOHN ADAMS :

John Adams (October 30, 1735 – July 4, 1826) was an American politician and political philosopher and the second President of the United States (1797–1801), after being the first Vice President of the United States (1789–1797) for two terms. He was one of the most influential Founding Fathers of the United States.
Adams came to prominence in the early stages of the American Revolution. As a delegate from Massachusetts to the Continental Congress, he played a leading role in persuading Congress to adopt the United States Declaration of Independence in 1776. As a representative of Congress in Europe, he was a major negotiator of the eventual peace treaty with Great Britain, and chiefly responsible for obtaining important loans from Amsterdam bankers.

Influence in Boston Massacre :

n 1770, a street confrontation resulted in British soldiers killing five civilians in what became known as the Boston Massacre. The soldiers involved, who were arrested on criminal charges, had trouble finding legal counsel. Finally, they asked Adams to defend them. Although he feared it would hurt his reputation, he agreed. Six of the soldiers were acquitted. Two who had fired directly into the crowd were charged with murder but were convicted only of manslaughter.
As for Adams's payment, Chinard alleges that one of the soldiers, Captain Thomas Preston, gave Adams a symbolic "single guinea" as a retaining fee, the only fee he received in the case. However, David McCullough states in his biography of Adams that he received nothing more than a retainer of eighteen guineas. Adams's own diary confirms that Preston paid an initial ten guineas and a subsequent payment of eight was "all the pecuniary Reward I ever had for fourteen or fifteen days labour, in the most exhausting and fatiguing Causes I ever tried.
Despite his previous misgivings, Adams was elected to the Massachusetts General Court (the colonial legislature) in June 1770, while still in preparation for the trial.
