mar 24, 1774 - Intolerable Acts

Description:

King George III was infuriated by this organized destruction of British property (referring to Boston Tea Party), and he pressed Parliament to act. In 1774, Parliament responded by passing a series of measures that colonists called the Intolerable Acts. One law shut down Boston Harbor because the colonists had refused to pay for the damaged tea.
