Ted, > Why did the Boston Tea party happen? What was the motivation behind the uprising?

Can't wait to hear your revision of history ...


No revision.......the colonists were pissed because they were getting taxed without representation. How are the current tea parties similar? In fact, they are not. Wingers have representation in Washington. That representation may be ineffectual but that's a different situation than what the colonists were facing.
