 * STAMP ACT PROJECT : 10/25/10**

2.) Editorial- By Sal Cherone __**The Boston Gazette**__ I have recently witnessed a large mob of people attack and destroy a British politician's mansion without even so much as trying to stop the violence. The owner of this mansion is Thomas Hutchinson, a man whose arrogance, ambition, power, and wealth makes him one of the most unpopular men in Massachusetts. The mob angry mob reduced his house to a mere shell by looting his valuables and tearing walls down. Despite the mob's brutal actions, I support the mob tactics used by the sons of liberty. I think there was not better way to get our point across to the British, and their actions are completely justified.

The British have continued to tax us unfairly for many years and we're fed-up! We thought we could put up with it until the stamp act was put in place. We were outraged! No one can buy or sell land, write a will, become an apprentice, read a newspaper or almanac, or even play cards without paying the tax. This is the first direct tax they have imposed on us and we refuse to sit back and take the abuse. More and more mobs are forming to protest the taxation and they won't stop until the tax is gone. The crown is already beginning to fear the mobs, and that fair will continue to grow.......
