Answer:
A. British Parliament's passage of the revenue raising Stamp Act
.
Explanation:
With the British control over colonial America, the need and want for freedom began, with numerous revolts and rebellions emerging in many places. Along with that, the dissatisfaction with the British colonial authority kept on increasing with the government implementing numerous 'taxes' on the colonies.
In his August 19, 1765 letter to Joshua Mauger, Archibald Hinshelwood wrote how "the execution of the Stamp Act" led to a "violent spirit of opposition [. . .] in the American Colonies". The unrest was so extreme that it even led to an act of anger against "Mr. Oliver" who had accepted an office. Thus, the British Parliament's act of passing the Stamp Act, which was an indirect way of taxing the colonies led to the actions quoted in the letter.
Thus, the correct answer is option A.
