The british army started sending british soldiers in to the colonists homes because they didn't have enough room during the war for them or on base so they started sending them in to peoples homes and the colonists couldn't speak their mind about it because the soldiers would report it to the general and he would kill them because of the no representation rule so they had to stay good thoughts about the british and the soldiers could take anything they wanted and the colonists couldn't do anything about it.On the website“The Quartering Acts”, published by The It states “The last act passed was the Quartering Act of 1774 which applied not just to Massachusetts, but to all the American colonies, and was only slightly different than the 1765 act. This new act allowed royal governors, rather than colonial legislatures, to find homes and buildings to quarter or house British soldiers. This only further enraged the colonists by having what appeared to be foreign soldiers boarded in American cities and taking away their authority to keep the soldiers distant.” I would like to build on the fact that they would get executed if they said anything back to it or they said anything bad about it and they could do nothing. This is a clear piece of evidence that the British would abuse their power against the colonists. In conclusion the Quartering act was when the British army started sending British soldiers into the colonists homes the colonists couldn't fight back or do anything back because they would be executed so they had to be quiet and suck it up or else they would be harmed and this is the british abusing their power and not being fair with the
