Final answer:

A colonist expresses their resentment and anger towards the Sugar Act, citing it as a revenue-raising action without consent, disrupting trade and exports, and potentially stripping away liberties.

Step-by-step explanation:

Your Majesty,

I find myself resentful of the Sugar Act imposed upon us. As a colonist, I view this act not merely as a regulation on trade but an aggressive action to raise a revenue without our consent. This policy has disrupted our profitable commerce and bounded our exports, leaving many of us feeling angry and betrayed. The fear that trials without juries could strip us of our liberty adds to our angst. It is alarming that the prosperity and rights we cherish as British subjects are compromised by such measures.
