The British were taxing the Americans for everything without giving the colonies any say in Parliament. The rallying cry was, "No taxation without representation." They rebelled by throwing tea into the harbor and by throwing rocks at British soldiers stationed in America. This led to the Boston Massacre. The British thought that the colonies should respect the mother country, so they went to war.
