THE STAMP ACT
By: Erynn 1. Taxes

The Stamp act is when colonists had to pay tax on all paper. Some things that were taxed are legal documents, licenses, newspapers, other publications, and even playing cards. All the money collected from this tax went to help pay costs of defending the American frontier near the Appalachian Mountains. The coast of the tax was very small. The law was abhorrent to the colonists because it set a standard. Past taxes were always viewed as measures to regulate commerce not to gain money.

The stamp act was viewed as a way to raise money in the colonies without the approval of the colonies. Only a couple of people believed that they could do nothing about the law except pay the taxes. This was true until the Virginia House of Burgesses adopted Patrick Henry's Stamp Act ideas on how to fix the Act. The ideas were that Americans possessed the same rights as the English. They thought that they should have the right to be taxed only by their own representatives. Also any one supporting the parliament should be an enemy of the colonies. Some others were mentioned the colonies used four of the ideas.

Some conflicts between the British and the Colonies happened. This happened because the Colonies were the underdogs and they didn’t get a say in anything. The British used the Colonies. They taxed them because they thought the Colonies couldn’t do anything about it. The Colonies hated that so they rebelled. Then The Revolutionary war happened.

Who statred the Stamp act and what conflict was caused? __ ===<span style="color: #ff0000; font-family: Georgia,serif;">In 1765, the British government started the <span style="background-color: #ffff00; color: #ff0000; font-family: Georgia,serif;">Stamp Act. <span style="color: #ff0000; font-family: Georgia,serif;"> Anything printed on paper needed a stamp that was bought from the English. The stamps cost money and England got the money. The Stamp Act was passed by Parliament because since alot of money was spent during the French and Indian war, they used this act to get money back, for their own needs. === ===<span style="color: #ff0000; font-family: Georgia,serif;">The Stamp act caused a conflict between the British and the colonists. Since the colonists did not like these acts they tried to <span style="background-color: #ffff00; color: #ff0000; font-family: Georgia,serif;">avert <span style="color: #ff0000; font-family: Georgia,serif;"> themselves but as we all know the British is way to powerful. Although the colonists did refuse to buy the stamps and they also burned the stamps as well. There were many other conflicts <span style="color: #ff0000; font-family: Georgia,serif;">that the colonists did to <span style="background-color: #ffff00; color: #ff0000; font-family: Georgia,serif;">protest <span style="color: #ff0000; font-family: Georgia,serif;"> against the stamp act.As a result of this the stamp act was then assemble <span style="color: #ff0000; font-family: Georgia,serif;">into a law keeping the colonists in place. So the conflict cause between two groups is the stamp act. ===

What was the Outcome of the Stamp act and how did the Colonists react? By: Emme Spielfogel <span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 14pt;">Every patriot <span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 14pt;"> was very angry that they had to follow all the British rules for the Stamp Act. They did many things to show that they didn’t want to do this! The stamp Act made the colonists very upset!! <span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 14pt;">Most coloniss were flabbergasted <span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 14pt;"> by the tax because they saw it as a lacking attempt to raise money in the colonies without the agreement of the colonists. They did not elect members of Parliamen <span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 14pt;">t and there was no approval required by many of the colonial legislatures <span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 14pt;">. Even though the Stamp Act was not a brutal thing, colonists were nervous that this new type of legislation would set. In addition to that, a mob started because the colonists didn’t like that they had to put stamps on everything. Samuel Adams stated the protest <span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 14pt;"> which then went into the mob of the <span style="color: windowtext; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 14pt;">very angry colonists. <span style="color: windowtext; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 14pt;">As you can see, the Britain and the colonists had many conflicts between each other due to the Stamp Act. The colonists disagreed with everything the British were telling them to do. So, the British practicially had full power over the colonists. The Americans had nothing to do. __ What Causes Conflicts Between Groups of People? __
 * While the British was ruling over the Americans, there were conflicts between the British and the Colonists/ Americans. What caused these conflicts was what the British was doing to the Americans/Colonists. The British had full power over them which made the Colonists get very angry and to start a mob. So overall, all these conlficts started from the British but then the Colonists got so angry they started a mob with full anger. As you can see, the Bristish over ruling and having full power over the colonists, clearly started all of the colonists. **
