The most accurate answer is B. The colonists could no longer tolerate any more laws that took away their liberties.

The Intolerable Acts were a series of punitive measures imposed by the British government in response to colonial dissent, particularly following the Boston Tea Party. These acts were seen by the colonists as a violation of their rights and liberties, which escalated tensions and ultimately contributed to the outbreak of the American Revolutionary War.
