Personally i agree with the colonists are they have no right to be taxed. There was no member of parliament.There making all oh the choices how to tax and it is not fair.

I agree with Daniell, and i do not think the colonist should be taxed because they were not being representid in England, so they had no voice. So they had no chioce. If you know what i am saying.

Colonist, because freedom is suppose to be free and that is why they came over here from England. The reason why I don’t think they should pay a tax is because they did not particapte in the war.

I think the colonists are right because they dont live in England and they dont have the right to tax goods that people need ever day. They colonist left England so they could govern themselves

Even though the British helped out the colonists alot so that they won the French and Indian War, they didn’t have any reason to place so many taxes on the colonists. They can’t tax sugar, stamps, and all of the many other taxes that they put on the colonies. So that would say that I think the colonists were right. Government shouldnt be able to take over colonists money and rights.

i think that the colonist were right, they shouldn’t of just had taxes all of a sudden on mostly everything. even though they pretty much governed themselfs they didn’t take advantage of the fact that they had say in there government kinda. they didn’t really do anything to deserve that.

Even though it is quiet biased I agree with the colonists because of thier audacity and determination. The colonist stood up for what them and I agree is right and that is a noble task in itself. In the britishes defence though they did think that the colonies should pay up but didn’t take into consideration that they might want to speak their peice and may of mad a decent point.

I think that the colonists are right because they have no reason to be taxed. They dont have any member of the colonies in parliament so the parliament in England is making the rules for the colonies. If i were in the colonies i would be outraged.
