They agreed with the king who stated that he was doing it to help the colonists by blocking off the hostile Indians from invading. The colonists were moving to the west(where they were promised land by winning the French and Indian War) but there were Indians living there that killed them, or drove them back. The king didn't want the Indians stealing the colonists' land, and he didn't want the colonists killed.
