Phil Long's Question 10/12-13
Do you think that the colonists' responses to the enforcement of British sovereignty were justified or were the colonists merely overreacting? Take into account the fact that stamp taxes were also used in England proper and also some provinces of England received little to no representation in Parliment. Were the "Founders'" beliefs that they deserved all the entitlements of English nobility well-founded?

I think that the colonist were justified in their response. Although the British also had the Stamp tax and some may have not had representation they were still in England and had a better chance and better care. The colonists also being so far away had there own systems and laws setup and they knew what they needed to be for life in the New World and how it different from England.
