Where does the idea of "No Taxation without Representation" come from? In what ways did the colonists feel this right was being violated?

    It began as a slogan in 1763 until 1776 that summerized a grivence in the British Colonies. The ways that the colonists felt there right was being violated are that they belived that the lack of representation in British Parliment was a denial to their rights as Englishmen. They also thought that because of the denial of their rights that it was unconstitutional.-RR
