Best Answer

England stationed British soldiers in the colonies because there was much rebellion and a growing tension in the colonies over British taxes(Stamp Act, Tea Act, Sugar Act, Townshed acts) . Britan wanted to make sure that the colonies remanied under control and they did not want a rebellion to start. The soldiers stationed there were called 'lobsterbacks' by the patriots (colonists who disagreed with taxes and wanted freedom from Britan). This was not that helpful by having the soldiers there-it reminded people that they were controlled and taxed by Britan and urged them to rebel. Soldiers from Britan were teased by patriots and this teasing lead to the first act of rebellion-the Boston Massacre. -roundrupert
