Samuel Adams protested that British were taxing colonists for everything, including their own possessions. He also plan all the mobs against the tax collectors, and was one of the principal planners in the Boston Tea Party.
He`s views became a liitle radical after the british close the harbor. He was one of few who oposed the Sugar act from the start, the other one didn`t care much.
The protests continued, and if the tax collector went to collect taxes, they would attacked him, destroying their house also. Thanks to this mobs, no one in Boston dare to support the Stamp Act. In October 1765 congress encourage consumers to boycott imported goods from Britain, that was called "non-importation agreement".
