Stamp Act

They wanted more British goods

They were taxed heavily without representation

They enjoyed the British military presence

They were receiving too much support from Britain

To increase taxes on all goods

To curb smuggling and encourage British purchases

To eliminate all taxes on sugar

To create a new currency for the colonies

"No taxation without representation is tyranny."

"Liberty or death!"

"Give me liberty or give me death!"

"We the people!"

Only food and beverages

All paper products

Clothing and textiles

Only legal documents

They supported it

They protested violently

They ignored it

They created a petition

It was protected by soldiers

It was stormed and vandalized

It was turned into a museum

It became a gathering place for loyalists

By sending more troops to the colonies

By using local law enforcement

It was fully implemented without changes

It led to the resignation of stamp distributors

It resulted in more taxes

It united the colonies in support of Britain

Peaceful marches and petitions

Writing letters to Parliament

Tar and feathering British officials

Organizing community events

More violent actions

Organization and respectability

Complete independence immediately
