<em>The Sons of Liberty</em> were people gathered in groups who did not accept England’s new laws. The most representative groups were from Boston and Charles Town, South Carolina. <em>Christopher Gadsden</em> lead the people from South Carolina.
Specifically, the people from Charles Town were very upset about the Stamp Act. The Act was a new law from Great Britain in 1765 that imposed taxes on American Colonies for every piece on printed paper.
In a demonstration of discontent, the colonist protested firmly, demanding England to reconsider the imposition of the printed paper tax. Their motto was: "<em>No taxation without representation</em>".
