He thinks that Candy’s dog should be shot because it is old and smelly, he persistently argues to shoot the dog, an example is when he says “Well, I can’t stand him in here” and “and he stinks to bear hell. Tell you what. I’ll shoot him for you. Then it won’t be you that does it.” He suggests that Candy could have one of Slim’s puppies instead, but he does not recognise that Candy has an emotional attachment to his dog. After he shoots the dog, he does not apologise to Candy and he even cleans his gun in full view of everyone, this shows that he is an insensitive character.
Snowball, resembles a man who was kicked out of his country, was chased out by Napoleon and his dog squad. KPA, the secrets police, is made up of the dogs napoleon took from Pincher and brainwashed by napoleon. One difference in the movie is that Old Major gets shot, but in the novel he dies of natural causes. What happens is that old major calls a meeting and tell the other animals that they need to overthrow the humans to get a better life. He tells of a song that he and his other friends sung when they were kids called “ Beasts of England” and leads the animals in the song.
You will also get to explore through old barns, businesses, and churches. The Cherokee and Eurpeon frontiersman made Cades Cove their own little community. They used these fields for growing wheat, corn, and cattle. To me this is the most interesting historical place in Gattlinburg. Gatlinburg also offers lots of hiking trails for people who love the outdoors.
Franklyn D. Roosevelt was one of America’s most successful presidents in history. Franklyn Delano Roosevelt became president in nineteen thirty two while America was suffering the most during the Great Depression. As soon as he was in office, Roosevelt enlightened the American citizens that his idea of the New Deal program would definitely deliver relief, recovery, and reform which was called the "3 Rs." Now, this astonishing, luminous plan did have it’s ups and downs. For instance it worked rapidly for Americans but it DID NOT end the Great depression, this was very depressing.
Though the pet was once a great sheepherder, it was put out to pasture once it stopped being productive. Candy realizes that his fate is to be put on the roadside as soon as he’s no longer useful; on the ranch, he won’t be treated any differently than his dog. Worse than the dog parallel, though, is that Candy (unlike his dog) is emotionally broken by this whole affair. He can’t bring himself to shoot his pet himself, and we suspect this is going to be the same fear and reticence that keep him from making anything more of his life. Candy can’t stand up for his pet because Candy can’t stand up for himself.
Senator Joseph McCarthy, McCarthyism, and The Witch Hunt On November 14, 1908, Joseph McCarthy was born into a Roman Catholic family as the fifth of nine children in Appleton, Wisconsin. Although McCarthy dropped out of grade school at the age fourteen, he returned to diligently finish his studies in 1928, permitting him to attend Marquette University. Once accepted, he began his journey to become what many historians consider to be one of the least qualified, most corrupt politicians of his time. After receiving his law diploma at Marquette University, McCarthy dabbled in unsuccessful law practices, and indulged in gambling along the way for extra financing. Despite being a Democrat early in his political years, he quickly switched into the Republican Party after being overlooked as a candidate in the Democratic Party for district attorney.
George needs to blame somebody for his mediocre life; the truth of his mediocrity, however, lies in his enjoyment of alcohol and prostitutes, vices that prevent him from ever raising enough money to finance his dream of owning his own farm. George from Of Mice and Men, despite his shortcomings, acts admirably towards his helpless friend. • Lennie is big and dumb. His childlike innocence allows him to take an active role in George's dream of owning a farm. Lennie loves soft things and animals, which he accidentally kills because of his strength.
He makes friends with George quite quickly and they talk about Lennie in a pitiful but admiring way (pitiful about his lack in intelligence but they admire him for his physical strength). Carlson abuses his power of having a gun by running for it every time he has an excuse to use it. When the men mention the health of Candy’s dog and suggests shooting it to put it out of its misery Carlson is the one who gets his gun and shoots the dog. When Lennie is suspected of killing Curley’s wife, Carlson runs for his gun but George has already got to Carlson’s gun and stolen it. I think Carlson is very abusive of his power in how he does this.
CANDY (OLD AND INFIRM) “lousy ol’ sheep” …Carlson’s attitude towards his dog (A70,P48): ‘I don’t know nothing that stinks as bad as an old dog. You gotta get himout…he ain’t no good to himself. Why’n’t you shoot him, Candy?’ …Candy’s words about his future (A88, P66): ‘You seen what they done to my dog tonight?…When they can me here…I won’t have no place to go, an’ I can’t get no more jobs.’ He believes he will share the same fate as his dog eventually, because he is old he is seen as 2useless2. In the novel old age is associated with lack of ability, even in modern times, we still believe old people to lack vital capabilities. However, there are some old people who are still fit and capable of working.
And how did such an advanced society allow itself to be seduced and then destroyed by its own capacity for senseless barbarity? The Germans in the thirties were seduced by the glittering success of Hitler in creating jobs, generating a vibrant economy and restoring Germany's military might. William Shirer, who was on the scene in Germany during these critical years, candidly sums up the mood of the country at this juncture: "Not many Germans lost sleep over the arrests of a few thousand pastors and priests or over the quarreling of the various Protestant sects .." It was this apathy and moral indifference in Germany that empowered Hitler and fueled his military juggernaut that was poised to roll inexorably over Europe. Why did Hitler hate the Jews? Holocaust happened because Hitler and the Nazis were racist.
