Answer:

well, the colonists wanted to have proper rights as british citizens under king george's rule. mainly, he taxed them unfairly (taxation without representation) and they protested against this many times as they felt it was very unfair and went against their rights as british citizens.

Answer: Historians say the main reason the colonists were angry was because Britain had rejected the idea of 'no taxation without representation'. Almost no colonist wanted to be independent of Britain at that time. Yet all of them valued their rights as British citizens and the idea of local self-rule.
