In response to the boycotts of the colonies the British Govermment stablish the "Townsland Act" which consisited on taxing products like: glass, paint, paper, tea, etc. and ouviously the colonies opposed and violence errupted again. And was in this time when the Boston Massacre occur, a group of colonists were drunk and started to throw balls to the soldiers and they felt "threatened" and open fire to 5 colonists and killed them, this was known as the "Boston Massacre".
