The Sons and Daughters of liberty were originally created in response to the Stamp Act place by parliament. The groups both men and women alike, were willing to resort to any means in order to bring an end to British tyranny. The Sons of Liberty had many rituals, code words, metals, and symbols. Threats and intimidations were their weapons against tax collectors and was the Sons of Liberty who ransacked the houses of British officials. The daughters of liberty are considered to have performed equally important task but the often upheld boycotts particularly where tea was concerned. They also work to make homemade substitutes for goods when nonimportation became the decided course of action. Basically the Sons and Daughters of Liberty were willing to do whatever it took to gain justice from the British colonies even if it meant resorting to violence so, there is no doubt that had the American Revolution failed they would have been considered violent misfits.
