Here are 5 of the first 6 grievances with King George III that the colonists put in the US Declaration of Independence:

For Quartering large bodies of armed troops among us

For cutting off our Trade with all parts of the world

For imposing Taxes on us without our Consent

For depriving us in many cases, of the benefits of Trial by Jury

For transporting us beyond Seas to be tried for pretended offences

@bascule The government of George III was entirely justified in its actions, moreso than the current US government.
