American Revolutionary War Techniques

What were the Techniques the Colonists used to start a revolution between 1763 and 1776? Do you think the Colonists could have achieved independence without these techniques?  

Sons of Liberty:
a.     Got together as an organized group, and made a vow to stop doing business with the British.
b.    The reason they did it is that we didn’t agree with the British rights and laws.
c.     We don’t agree with the British, because we want our freedom and our own rights.
Taxes:
a.     Such as the Sugar Act, the British reduced the taxes but made taxes on more things.
b.    We got mad and rampaged, and the British got mad back to start a war.
c.     Like the Declaratory Act we should be able to make our own taxes ourselves without the British.
Boston Massacre and the Boston Tea Party:
a.     For the Boston Massacre because the British rose the taxes we rampaged them and lost 6 lives.
b.    For the Boston Tea Party, Colonists dressed as Mohawk Indians and through 342 chests of tea into the Boston Harbor.
c.     I think that the Colonists could have achieved independence without these two techniques, but not without all the Techniques.
