The colonists declared the Coercive Acts unconstitutional, and called for a complete Boston trade boycott. They also approved local preparation for armed resistance against the British.They agreed to meet in 6 months if the Acts were not repealed. It was at this time that Patrick Henry gave his famed speech to the Virginia legislature saying, "Give me liberty or give me death!"
