I think that its very unfair fot the Government to increase tax on public school's snacks I think the gonvernment is pretty greedy people are not rich specially when the economies went down and it will affect me because i love soda and all snacks but that still won't stop me from buying them and i also think its the same for most people because 10 cents wont hurt them. the government is just wasting their time and another reason why its stupid because why is it only in school ? why not other public places?

Opinion on sugar acts I think the sugar act is not bad because it makes sense to pay a little more for how much goods are transported overboard. and also more products need to be made.I think it's reasonable because it makes sense for merchants to pay good price for their goods to be transported

opening activity: describe what direct and inderect tax is - I think indirect sales tax is good tax and indirect is wrong tax partner's definition : a direct tax is something you know that you are paying, indirect tax is something you buy that is really expansive

direct tax is usually made by the government indirect tax is when consumers usually pay more for products. example of modern tax is income taxmedia type="custom" key="7276809"

11/3/10 Do Now

summarize the townshend act and how the colonist responded to it ?

The townsend act was a law against colonist to pay higher prices on taxes and colonist responded to it by boycotting british products

classwork the first image of the boston masacre showed that the british shooting the colonist and it seemed like british were guilty and the second image showed that the coloinst attacking the british and it seemed like the colonies were guilty I think the british soldiers would be found guilty because they went out and bothered the colonist so they got what they deserved.

11/5/10 can violence ever be justified why or why not ? I think it can because there is always a chance to make a difference it can be justified unless its self defence

minutemen is a member of war that is ready on set to fight,citizens soldiers ready for battle in a minute,(muskets) lots of smoke.

militia is everyday people trained as soldiers.

british regular is british soldiers on foot and they wore red uniform they were soldiers of the britsh arm "red coats".

alarm riders is mens assigned to call minutemen in action and to warn of incoming "attacks".

paul revere is a silversmith who was famed ffor his midnight journey, he was famous.

joseph warren was a dosctor only leader in boston that was not wanted by the british.

arms and ammunition is weapons, guns,bullets, stuff for fighting and war 11/17/10 do now who do you think was at fault on april 19 17775? I think the British were because they were the one who stated raising taxes and were treating the colonies unfair so the colonist felt like they should retaliate so i think the british were the one responsible for the war.

people that not just go out to shoot the army randomly, they were told to do so if they disobeyed they would have to get shot but it was that they were gonna have to fight because all of them were to shoot at the other they could not even hide. VIDEO I SEE IT MEANS

a man that got into this litlle argument with another man then he punched him. I guess the man betrayed him. I see the british soldiers in the middle of the night with weapons. they are about to attack the colonist. colonist were having a meeting on what they would do if the british. they were getting ready for what ever might happen. came out to attack them. a fifteen years old boy that wants to be in the war. change it means a signal that colonist are going to be attacked

11/18/10 homework If i had been asked to take up arms against my own government soldiers under any circumstances I would deny it because I would not want to be part of any political business in my opinion those things are just to risky like from watching the video "April Morning it makes me more not want to be part of that.

11/19/10:homework On April 19,1775 British soldiers walked down with minute men to fight colonist. Thomas Gage sent British soldiers to destroy colonist military stores. general Thomas Gage ordered British soldiers to walk on foot with grenadiers and destroy all colonist properties such as farms, houses military stores etc. and he also to told then to knock down the colonists guns. The fight started at 5:am on April when colonists head marching and loud noises. When the British arrived to the colonist, the British did not planned on firing at the them they just planned on fighting with them but instead colonist just shot at them and they British did not wait for orders they just shot back at them. and several of colonist got killed. a colonist said he saw hundreds of British solders coming at them then he saw a man galloping on horse and told them to put the guns down and called them names then out of nowhere the British just started to shoot at them.

11/19/10 do now I think because they thought the british were not going to shoot at them they just wanted to talk, another reason is to defend their rights to show that they were brave.
