Im going to assume its because a "lame duck" session only happened when congress meets after a election.
Answer:
First Paragraph:
The events leading to the Boston Massacre weren’t amazing. First, there was the Stamp Act Congress in 1767. These were designed to raise money. The Stamp Act Congress were the original people to let colonies protest the British law. However, the document says that this couldn’t pass because this wasn’t represented by British government. Next, there was the Townshend Act in 1767. This was also designed to raise money. This was put on things like glass, lead, paint, and tea. This led to the Boston Tea Party in 1773. Some patriots decided to dress up as Natives and protest this act and destroy ships full of tea and throw it overboard. They were punished by the government putting out another act. In 1774, The First Continental Congress met up and wrote to the king how angry they were about the tea.
Second Paragraph:
On the night of March 5th, 1770, British soldiers in the Massachusetts bay started firing on a large group of colonists. The soldiers stood in front of the Customs House. The soldiers stood there to stop were there to stop validation up against the Townshend Acts. However, they failed making everyone extremely angry. I don’t believe they were accountable for the murder. They were just acting in self-defense.
Explanation:
Pro Slavery- Their thoughts- we white folks are richer and better than these poor "blacks" we should be in control of them, they can help us take care of crops and be our slaves, it will make life easier.
Anti Slavery- it's unconstitutional, and wrong for people to treat people this way.
I am 100% against slavery i just wanted to put both sides of an argument.
