How did the colonists react to the intolerable acts?

The actual name for the acts was the Coercive Acts and this is important to know because the purpose of the acts was to punish Massachusetts for its resistance to parliamentary rule ( in particular the Boston Tea Party). Although some English leaders advised the king against the acts the king and most of Parliament were determined to restore imperial authority in the colonies. Massachusetts was seen, in England, as the source of resistance and it was felt that the acts would quash any rebellion at the source while setting an example to the other colonies The Boston Port Bill closed Boston harbor until the East India Company and the customs office had been paid back for their losses due to the Tea Party.

The Administration of Justice Act permitted British soldiers and Crown officials in Massachusetts to be tried in England rather than in the colonial courts there if they were charged with a capital crime committed while quelling a riot or collecting revenue. This act annulled the colonies charter and curtailed town meetings and changed the elective offices to appointments by the king or governor. The Quartering Acts legalized having troops in people's houses.

The result of the acts was to make people in the colonies more upset and quicken resistance ( many of the items listed in the Declaration are from the abuses suffered under these acts and later will show up in the Bill of Rights). To coordinate resistance the First Continental Congress was formed in Sept of 1774 and they declared the acts unconstitutional and non binding. Thus, pushing the colonies closer and closer to a complete break.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
