Graphic organizer:

Strengths
 * could scare british into doing what they want
 * could cause damage that british has to worry about
 * be useful for when there is a new law, to get the mob to protest against it
 * overrun a british post- show them thaat the colonists are not afraid
 * could get bigger and bigger then eventually be big enough to seriously plot against the british instead of little protests- e.g. boston tea party

weaknesses:
 * could backfire and break out into a riot
 * many people could die/
 * the british might actually fight back
 * the mob could get all colonists in trouble
 * could escalate or snowball into big fight which might result to war.
