Please Help A 1774 print depicted the tarring and feathering of Boston Commissioner of Customs John Malcolm. Tarring and feathering was a ritual of humiliation and public warning that (usually) stopped just short of serious injury.
1: Do you think this was made by a British or colonial artist? Why?

2: Do you think this a proper way to protest against government action? Explain.

Explanation:

1: I believe that this was written by a colonial artist. Tarring and feathering was a common occurence typically aimed at Loyalists by Patriot men.

2: I do not think this is a proper way to protest against government action. A proper way to protest would be to write a letter or have a formal conversation. I do not think you should resort to violence in this way.

i want to say death; parole, probation, and fines are still being used all the time.
