John Hancock reacted to British colony policies by smuggling goods into the colonies and avoiding customs regulations.

In 1765, John Hancock, a prominent American merchant, decided to take part in local politics and became Boston selectman. At this time, the British Parliament was imposing a series of high taxes for trading in their colonies. Hancock’s reaction to this measure was to <em>evade the payment of taxes by avoiding British customs.</em> Consequently, Hancock’s merchant ship, the Liberty, was seized by British officials, which led to strong protests by local residents.
