I believe that independence from the British king's rule was the only option for the colonists. If the colonists didn't go aganist the king nohing would have changed, and maybe even gotten worse. The Stamp Act, Tea Act, Intolerence Act, Townshead Act, The Proclamation Act, and the battles; such as, the Boston tea party and the Boston massicure, is all what lead to the revolutionary war.

The colonists fighting for their indpendence was there only choice. They wre being punished for things they didn't even do as well as being over taxed. They no longer wanted live in such misery. Enough was enough for them. The way they wanted to live was having ther own form of government. This government would have no king or a controlling leader, it would run by the votes of the citizens.

If they didn't fight for their indepence all of that would have been impossiable. The colonists knowing the king, knew that he would never agree to a compromise, and would still contuine to treat them horriably.
