Seminoles used the force to resist and fight against the removal.

As a matter of fact, President Jackson wanted to relocate them in order to make the land available for American farmers' settlement. Differently from the Cherokees and Choctaws who changed many of their ways and tried to assimilate the white culture, Seminoles decided to make use of force and fight for what they believed in.
