Why might the king have ignored the colonists petitions for redress?

History
1 answer:
oksian1 [2.3K]3 years ago
7 0
The King might have ignored the colonists petitions for redress because he believed he was well within his authority to impose the imperial policies that the British were imposing on the colonists. Additionally the British believed that they had protected and taken care of the colonists in a number of wars and therefore deserved to be paid through taxes for the services they had provided. In addition the King had numerous other colonies and wanted to prevent any of the colonies from believing they had the ability or right for self government.

Was general thomas gage a patriot or loyalist or neutral
umka21 [38]
<span>Loyalist. Let's take a look at a few points in General Thomas Gage's history and decide what he is. In April 1775, General Gage received orders to take action against the Patriots. In June 1775, Gage issued a proclamation granting a general pardon to all who would demonstrate loyalty to the crown. I don't think I need to look further. General Thomas Gage was definitely a Loyalist during the American Revolutionary War.</span>
