The Boston Massacre

Violence overcomes Boston on March 5, 1770, while a group of colonists were in a bar having a couple of drinks they saw some of the man that belonged to the British troops. In this time the colonists were unemployed due to the British taking their jobs, because the colonists wanted to receive more payment and the British accepted the offers while the colonists didn't. The British had to send money to their families and stay with a little of it to for their daily basis needs.
The colonists were mad at them because they stole the jobs they wanted or needed. As the colonists were feeling angry and resentment towards them, they went to the Customs House where the British were, the colonists started shouting and throwing snow balls at them, the British reaction towards this was to stand outside with their guns, one of them ordered not to shoot because they were giving them time to surrender. The colonists never stopped and it got to the point that one of the British made a gun shoot, this caused the others to do so and ended up killing five of the colonists.
The British troops were demanded for murdering, they were defended by the lawyer and future american president John Adams who ended up saving six of them while two had their sentence reduced.

At the time Samuel Adams named this ¨The Boston Massacre¨.
