What were some misunderstandings between american colonists and British troops about the Boston Tea Party?

I don't understand how there could have been misunderstandings because I see it as pretty straight forward. How did the troops see the tea party?

There weren't really any misunderstandings that I can think of. The Sons of Liberty got their point across pretty clearly with the Boston Tea Party.
