Explanation:

If you bring a runaway slave into your home and don't report it, the head of the household will be put to death. I'm guessing that during the time, kidnapping people for  more labor work to be done was illegal, especially when it was done without permission by The Public Proclomation of the Major Domus.

The Way Society Changed:

Before the law was passed, this would be done constantly to keep possessions they didn't want to trade or to save currency (whatever currency was at the time). After it was passed, people had to start notifying the PPMD about the enslavements so their heads won't get hacked off.

What I would do:

I would do the right thing and just tell them "Hey can i have this slave?" and they'd go "Okay whatever" and I wouldn't get my head chopped off.

Hope this helps, man.

Which statement best describes the reaction of American patriots toward British colonial policy following the French and Indian
Diano4ka-milaya [45]

<em>A. They rejected Parliament’s right to manage their internal affairs.</em>

Explanation:

Following the French and Indian War, Great Britain decided to put taxes on the colonists. One of these tax laws was called the Stamp Act, which put taxes on printed items.

The colonists were not happy with these taxes and thought they were unfair, as they had nobody in the British Parliament to vouch for them, also known as "taxation without representation." Great Britain said they were actually taxing them fairly, as they needed to pay the debts for the French and Indian War and were providing the colonists with troops to protect them.

This caused tensions to rise between the colonists and Great Britain. The British colonial policies made the colonists start to want independence from Great Britain, as they felt everything they were doing was unfair. <u>They rejected the British Parliament's right to manage their internal affairs and essentially wanted to be left alone. </u>
