Answer 1

The law that resulted in violence and property destruction, causing the closing of Boston Harbor, was the Tea Act. Specifically, it led to the Boston Tea Party in 1773, where colonists protested against the tax on tea imposed by the British government. In response to the Boston Tea Party, the Intolerable Acts were enacted, which included closing Boston Harbor. However, since the question specifically asks about the law that led to the initial violence, the answer is the Tea Act.
