The Collapse Of The Dorchester Incident

After analyzing the video about the Boston Massacre, what it should be called depends all on which side you took. Patriots would have took this as a massacre because, not only would it blame the British, but their people were also considered "slaughtered". Thus, to the Patriots, this would be considered a massacre. However, for the Loyalists and British, this would be considered a riot. A crowd of colonists threw snowballs, stones, oyster shells, and even wood at British soldiers. This was basically a disturbance of peace, or a riot. The soldiers had the right of defending themselves, so I do understand the reasons for shooting, but killing wasn't necessary. In the end however, in my opinion, without being biased to any sides, the Boston Massacre should be considered a riot.

On his person were 10 dollars and a purse from the house he just stole from. The father filed a lawsuit on the officer and the court found that since there was no immediate danger to that officer or the public the deadly force was unconstitutional. Added to that, a police officer may not seize an unarmed nondangerous suspect by shooting him dead.

I wonder how the officer would have felt if suddenly, the gun had been turned on him.

Boston Massacre: The Boston Massacre was the breaking point for the war starting. The colonials felt like they were innocent and that the people that were killed were innocent. It angered the colonists that the British just shot at them. This made every meeting between the British and the colonists more and more tense.

Explain your answer. The officer had probable cause. Also there was a call from someone that seemed lives could be endangered because he had that handgun. There's no way of knowing if someone actually has a valid permit to carry by just looking at them. You have to do a search to find out. The best thing to do is take the gun until they get the information of whether they have a permit or not. You need to do this to insure you and the witnesses are safe. Since it was found the man had a permit and had committed no actual crime he was let go.

There could be several issues that arise with law enforcement seizing evidence from the passenger. Did law enforcement have a reasonable belief that the suspect had control of a weapon and that the suspect was also dangerous? Was the search of the passenger unconstitutional and did law enforcement invade the passenger’s privacy? Another thing to consider is if the evidence seized was part of the original reason for the officer conducting

While reading chapter six in our textbook, I became most interested in the event of the Boston Massacre. I believe the reason for this was because it is such a large event in history that is spoke about all of the time and I remember hearing about it in school, but I could not remember any of the details. So, the Boston Massacre started due to rising tensions and temperaments between colonists and British soldiers. "On October 1, 1768, the first of 4,000 British soldiers arrived to police the city of Boston" in order to maintain order and prevent uproars from the Townshend Act (Page 207). These soldiers were not only watching colonists every move but also working in Boston, which prevented colonists from attaining work.

armed but later a 9mm was recovered as the weapon he shot. The officer shot off 17 rounds at

Although many historians believe that the Boston Massacre was an act of self defense, it is clear that the incident was murder on the part of the soldiers. One reason why the situation was murder is because no soldier was seriously injured or killed in the massacre. This shows it was murder because there were many colonists injured and five colonists were killed, while no soldiers were killed or injured. If they were truly in danger, some would have been harmed. Also, another reason why the situation was murder is because the soldiers came into the situation with their guns loaded and bayonets on. This shows it was murder because they should not have been ready to harm unless they were planning to murder the colonists. Lastly, a reason why

On Tuesday, June 6, 2017, at approximately 2134 hours, Trooper Jason Brown, Unit 522, conducted a traffic stop at the junction of US 460 and Camargo Leevee Road in Montgomery County. Jimmy White was pulled over for driving with no headlights. When Trooper Brown made contact with Mr. White, dispatch advised Mr. White had active arrest warrants. When Trooper Brown advised Mr. White that he had active warrants and was under arrest, Mr. White began to flee on foot. Trooper Brown chased him approximately 300 feet giving him loud verbal commands to stop running. Mr. White tripped over some debris in the yard he was running through and fell to the ground. When he got back up to continue running, Trooper Brown attempted to place him in hand cuffs.

On March 5th, 1770, Colonists were angry about all Townshend acts. They were aggressive and started throwing snowballs and stones. One soldier was injured in that situation. Then, there was a shooting in Boston in a crowd where many people were injured and killed. Our British soldiers fired shots. Captain Preston was in charge of ordering the soldiers to shoot. All shots were fired as soon as the first shot went off.

The event started off as a mob between British Patriots and American colonists. The Americans were protesting on the street because of a recent job cut. As the protest got bigger and a British soldier had hit one of the American protestors, it grew into a massacre and ended with 6-7 innocent deaths. From then on it was known as The Boston

What happened on March 5, 1770? The Boston Massacre happened. Many of the colonist had just lost their jobs so they gathered around together. The colonist were not happy that they had lost their jobs most of the colonists were furious. A seventeen year old boy who was an apprentice had stepped out of his group and was screaming at the British that's when it happen. A British soldier had hit the seventeen-year old apprentice that's when the crowd went wild and started to fight with the British. The British soldiers had fired their guns. There were five colonists who were dead. The first man to be shot was an African American man. Paul Revere had seen what the British had done so he wrote a poster and called it the Bloody Massacre. After that had happened in Boston with the British soon after the other colonists heard about it as well.The British did not know that what they had done was the beginning of the war and they had started. (Miller & Perry,2017) (American Revolution, 2010).

The tension was evident in every frame. The British and the colonists were anything, but
