Answer 1

Yet, people who wanted freedom from Great Britain saw it as a intentional act on the Red Coats. The reason for these different accounts is because throughout the chaos of the massacre not one is certain who fired the first shot. This led to an array of accounts of what happened that night. Also, people’s political views can sway them to believe one account over another.
