Histeria!

George Washington, Charity Bazaar and others in “The American Revolution part II”

George Washington

[narrating] And so the British Parliament passed the Stamp Act, which taxed newspapers, playing cards, and all printed material imported by the colonies. The American colonists were not happy.

Charity Bazaar

We're not happy.

Pule Houser

Hey, this tax is unfair!

Froggo

We won't pay! [Redcoats surround them and cock their guns.] Unless they make us.

George Washington

Then in 1767, Parliament passed the Townend act, which taxed tea, paper, glass, and lots of other items. Now the colonists were even less happy.

[The Redcoats surround Froggo, Charity, and Pule with their guns again.]

Charity Bazaar

Now we're even less happy.
