I think it was the colonist fault because all the colonist were surrounding the custom house where all the kings money was lodged. They also started everything by speaking bad language at the british soldiers. But the British soldiers also did not have the right to come and destroy all of the colonist’s houses and they did not have the right to shoot us after all we did was throw snowballs at them speak bad language and push them with sticks, But the only reason they shot us was because they heard one of the colonist yell fire if you dare so they fired because they heard someone say fire. So I think it was the colonists fault.
