not being funny, but you made it sorta sound like British were tyrannical
well, weren't they?
Being asked to pay taxes is tyranny now?
While the British had a compelling argument for making the colonies help pay back their debts (British troops -did- work both separate from and with colonists to defend cities, towns, and frontiers), the British also spent a lot more in national spending and other wars/ theatres than just in the colonies. This was one reason for the colonists not being very keen on paying taxes (not to mention the fact that this money was being sent back to the Parliament in England).
What's more, said taxes were not implemented/ passed with anyone in the British parliament being present to represent the colonies - something that the colonists (the majority of which being from the British Isles and saw themselves as British subjects) felt was illegal - and technically was. Boycotts on British goods ensued, and many new taxes were repealed, though some stayed. Still, this left a big rift between the colonies and the parliament back in London.
In order to help quell the sparks of rebellion and dissent, the British passed a number of acts. One act restricted town hall gatherings (though this may have only been in Massachusetts; not sure). Another made it so that if a British soldier had been accused of a crime or other infraction while in the colonies, they would be tried back in Britain instead of where the incident reportedly took place. Yet another shut down Boston harbor (a major economic port in those days, of course) until the damages done by the Boston Tea Party were paid in full (which was an act carried out in response to the aforementioned taxes many colonists believed to be unjust). The last of these acts allowed British troops (with order from the local governor, which could be done willy-nilly) to be housed in any person's private home or property (which could then technically be searched) without approval from the owner.
