In my opinion the worst thing that the British ever did to there colonists from 1763-1766 was the sugar act, in 1764. I think that this was the worst thing because it allowed tax collectors to take things from the colonists if they believe that it was smuggled, without going to court.

The worst thing the british to the colonists was make them house 10,000 soldiers. Doing so they let rapists,thieves,killers,and drunks live with innocent people.

Adam Jennings said...

The worst thing that the British did to the colonist is that the people didn't have juries.Also that you were guilty until proven innocent.

Mitchell Smitty said...

I think it would be the writs of assistance because if a offical thought there was smuggled goods they would take them even if its not smuggled.

joes said...

the worst thing that the british did to the colnist was the decalertory act because british could take anything they wanted.

LearyE said...

The worst thing that the British colonies did was, they moved to farmland or something like that.

Trey S. said...

Personally I think that the worst thing that the British did to the british colonist is forcing them to have 10,000 British soldiers in their colonies. I also think that having a British soldier in your house is completely absurd.

Maya G. said...

The worst thing the British did to the colonists was making them pay taxes on everything like paper.

Myka H. said...

Think the worst thng that they have probably done was taxing the people but didn't like tell the real reason why. The British colonist are just thinking the British are just taxing them to take advantage,but the British are really just losing money because of the war ,and they need more.

I Think the worst thing british did to the colonist is tax them on printed . The colonist made there money for there family, not for printed materials.

Carly D. said...

I think that the worst thing the British did to the colonists was that when someone was reported for smuggling, they were just sent right to jail, and they wouldnt get a chance to go to court or have a jury. I think this was the worst thing because if you really didnt smuggle anything, and you got sent to jail, then that would be horrible. Also, if someone didnt like you, then they could just tell someone that you smuggled just to get you put in jail.

Maria K. said...

I think that the Sugar Act was the worst thing the British did to the Colonists. I think this because if the British never made this act and chose to do something else the colonists might have had a little more trust.

Philip S said...

I think the worst thing the British did to the colonist was send 10 thousand soldiers over to where the colonist lived.The soldiers didn't have a place to live so they just lived with the colonist in there houses weather they liked it or not.The soldier that lived with you could''ve been a thief, rapist, a drunk, and other things in that area.

Norris,jayda said...

The worst thing that the British colonies did was they went to the indeas anD started conflict .

clarkk said...

The worst thing the British did to the colonists in 1763 and 1766 was when the British police were able to take anything that they thought was smuggled. I think this because it isn't fair to take any ones belongings without prof.

Raivin Webster said...

when the british repealed the stamp act in 1766 only a year after it has been issued.

stephanie v said...

The worst thing thats happened to the British was war because it destroyed territory. Another thing that happened was that lots of people died and lost homes.

Darinda R said...

the worst thing they did was let the law allow the soldiers to take people stuff them thinking it was stollen goods

Xavier.D said...

They started taxing paper was the worst because that started the rag figures.

Tyler K. said...

The worst the British did to the colonist was that they start taxing.

Jaylen Jones said...

They made the stamp act,where the colonists have to pay tax,but they trying to fight back with a boycott.The protest was a success,the merchant of the colony lost so much money they begged parliament to repeal the stamp act in 1766.The government passed another act at the same time the stamp act was repealed,that act was called The Declaratory act,which stated that they have the right to make decision for the colony in all cases.The colonists were happy about the end of the stamp act,but they didn't regain the trust in the government.

keyonh said...

the worst thing that they did was the writs of assistance.where they could just come search your house.i dont think they should have the right to come in your house for no reason.

Conner F. said...

I think that the act where the soldiers can live in their house. I think that this was the worst because the colonist. this was not fair because you had no choice this was one more bed to make, mouth to feed, and many more things that are not fair for more people.

gaitherashl said...

the worst thing that the british did was the writz of of insistances that was the worst thing that they did.

Nathan G. said...

I think the worst thing was the sugar act. It was the sugar act because they it lowered the tax on molasses but officers take smuggled goods without going to court.

Big_Breeden (Robbie) said...

I think the worst thing the Bristish colonist did was the writs assistance

Jon.B said...

The stamp act because it taxed on all printed goods.This cause the people to smugle goods in

ziggy stardust (josh z) said...

They taxed there goods.They could just accuse someone of smuggled goods and send them to jail or take there goods.This was not right because the colonist got no right to a jury,also they were guilty until proven guilty.

Devin W. said...

The Writs of assistance was the worse thing that happend to the colonist. I think this because it allowed officers to go into the colonist houses and take any goods that even looked smuggled even if it wasn't.

Carter G. said...

I think the worst thing that british government did to the colonists was make the writs assistance. The writs assistance allowed people to come in your house without a warrant and take stuff just because they say you were smuggling. Then when you went to court you were trailed without a jury. That's crazy bruhh!

gibsona said...

The worst thing that the british did to the colonist between 1763-1766. They had solders that had to live in peoples homes that they didn't even know people didn't like that at all that would be one of the worst things that people had to live with though those years.

Jason s. said...

The British made the colonists house the British army in there home

Louis G said...

They had the stamp act. It taxed every written material. So if they had to write a letter it got taxed. It directly taxed them without there consent.

marquaze said...

the colinies said they could not past the mountins then they said that people lived in there house and they went to jail if smugled.

triston s said...

they tax them a lot of times and they send the british soldiers to people in boston when they sent them there they live the colonist house and when people smuggle goods they don't get a trail for smuggle goods. they lower the tax on molasses.

Tamiah f. :p said...

Rits of assitance.and if they smuggled they could go to jail.

Jacob R. said...

They came up with the Stamp Act.The colonists did not benefit of a trial from jury and then they started putting out taxes against colonists

KAYLE G.(; !!! said...

The worst thing the British did to the Colonist was have the Writs Of Assistance. That is a law that allows officers to enter any location as they please to search for smuggled goods. I think this is the worst because it really isn't that pleasent. Haven't they heard of respecting others privacy to some people privacy is important. JUST SAYING!!!!! Spool yeah that's why I think it's the worst thing the British did to the Colonist.

harperJ said...

The worst thing the British did to the colonists is that the british kept control of the fur trade and the british eared this.

B.G. (Breonna) said...

The worst thing the British did to the Colonist between 1763 and 1766 was
They sent soldiers to live in there homes people didn't have a choice. And if you were caught smuggling then you would go to jail. And they could get blamed for nothing and still go to jail if the soldiers just wanted to get back at them.

brown kyler said...

they had soilder lined up to not let people cross on the other side of the mountain

William Q said...

The stamp act because they were taxing their products. With that in place they didn't want to buy products so they they were losing supplies.

Alexis,m said...

The worst thing Is the stamp act because there was so many taxes on products.

Malikb said...

The British taxed the colonists for shipped goods it was bad because the colonist boycotted it and nobody was buying anymore goods.

Darius m said...

The worse thing the British did to them is they raise the taxes

kyra e said...

The worst thing they did to the colonist was they have to take in a soldiers

Karlie H said...

I think the worst thing they did was the stamp act. I think it was wrong because they put too much taxes on anything printed.

Malik S said...

In my opinion the worst thing that the British did to the colonist would be that they taxed everything that they used like lead,paper,tea(ect.)

Megan i said...

The worst thing they did was putting taxes on printed marterials.

Smith,B said...

The Stamp Act Because all the goods they where taxing for

preston meece said...

the stamp act becuase in my opinion they were cometing a crime by framing inosent people for smuggling

johnathan n said...

they treated them very bad. that worked them until they died.they really didn't care as long as they got what they wanted and got their money.so that's my opinion on what was the worst thing the British did to the colonist.

anaiahw said...

to me the worst thing that the british did was let the people came over from great britian and just kind of forced them into peoples houses they didnt even know. because the people that came over could have been killers thieves and even worse

justin s said...

they did and lot of attacks and like stamps act and almost evrything. so that what the british did worse.

Richard t said...

the worst thing the british did to the colonists is won the war.Since the british won the war it gave them a vast amount a land.The 2nd worst thing is the British made a limit for the colonist moving west of the Appalachian.

coop,sya said...

put soldiers and there home and the court because you really didn't know the soldiers and also you was always guilty probably if you accused of something.

Marisa F said...

I think the worst thing they did to the colonists during that time was that they put many different taxes not them they they could not afford to do.

Hiep L. said...

In my opinion, the worse thing the British did to the colonists was send in soldiers to live with the colonists because imagine that you live with someone that you don't know, feel kind of weird and uncomfortable. IT'S TERRIBLE !!!

Riley B. said...

I think the worst thing the british did to the colonists was, The Stamp Act. I think this was the worst because you shouldn't have to pay extra just for printed items. Also, if you didn't have it stamped, then it wasn't legal.

justin,myers said...

the worst thing the British ever did to the colonist where make taxes on every thing printed on paper

Marc t said...

In my opinion the worst thing the British did to the colonist was make them house some of the militia and when people go to jail they don't get a chance because there is no jury. If u were accused of smuggling there was no trial u were always guilty.

bleist said...

the stamp act for taxing printed goods

Thomas Chhim said...

I think the the townshend acts was the worst thing they did. It taxed many materials that were common in everyday lives. What meanies!

Nora, W said...

the townshend act because they were taxing them on everything glass tea paper lead and ink. this is stupid why would you tax your own people to there debts who are being your ginnue pigs to see if this works. great Brittin back then were a bunch of dummies.

Kelsie l said...

The worst thing british did between 1763 and 1766 is the started brought in war members to stay with people. This is the worst thing because they could of been killers or steelers.

Lloyd W said...

the towshend act was the worst thing because it was the most costing.

Braylin L said...

The worst thing that the British did was not allow the colonists to move west. I say this because what if the population gets to big? Then where are the people going to go? So I think that was really unfair and not right.

unzicker ian said...

i think the worst thing that the british did to the colonists was that they taxed theme on tea

Andre E. said...

The worst thing that i think that the british did in 1763 and 1766 is that they took over the east side of the appalachian mountains.

Khanh Phuong T. said...

The worst thing that the British did to the colonist between 1763 and 1766 in my opinion is the Declaratory Acts, which states that the Parliament had the right to make the decisions for the colonists.

Zoe H . said...

The worst thing the British did to the colonist between 1763 through 1766 is when they made the soldiers live with some of the colonist because of they needed to house them incase people do something wrong . I mean i is the colonist houses , why didn't they just build a shelter for the soldiers . They could have been some crazy foolish soldiers and I am sure I would be seriously mad if they made me house a soldier . When i do not want to .

mason hate said...

The worst thing the british did to the colonists between 1763 and 1766 was they made the colonists bring in soldiers they didnt even know them.This is why i think this is the worst thing they did to the colonists.

jada love said...

what is the worst thing the british did to the colonist is that they made the soldiers move into the houses with colonist .

Schulz, Stephen said...

I think the worst thing the british did to the colonist was putting the soldiers in the peoples houses. I think this because i know if that happen to me i would not want some stranger to come into my house. So i definitely think that the soldiers going into the peoples homes was the worst thing that the british did to the colonist.
