What was the Boston Port Act?  Why were many colonists outraged at its passage?
It closed the port of Boston to trade until the East India Company was repaid and the King was satisfied. 

Many colonists were outraged that the entire city of Boston was punished and not just the few responsible.  Also, the Boston colonists were not given a chance to plead their case.
