In addition, in 3.1 Romeo murdered Tybalt to avenge the death of Mercutio by saying “Either thou or I, or both, must go with him.” (3.1. line 129). This implies that Romeo held a grudge against Tybalt for killing his own friend. This grudge motivated Romeo to kill Tybalt which then motivated Paris to fight Romeo in 5.3. This cycle of hatred between the two families is also what caused the fight scene in 1.1 where the Capulets and Montagues saw each other, then spat rude comments at each other
The Colonel does this for the sole purpose of stripping Matthew Maule of his land and natural spring so that he can have the land for himself, and build his mansion on it eventually known as "The House of Seven Gables". But before Matthew Maule is executed for his crime he warns the Colonel "That God will give him blood to drink". And at that very moment the curse was placed on the Colonel and all Pyncheon generations soon to come that would make the very same mistake that Colonel Pyncheon had made, which was to let his greed and fortune get the best of him. "The terror and ugliness of Maule's crime, and the wretchedness of his punishment, would darken the freshly plastered walls, and infect them with the scent of an old and melancholy house." (Chapter 1, The Old Pyncheon Family).
Within the source it is stated how More was often “taunting and mocking” people. This suggests More was cruel towards others and those below him in both rank and society. However, this evidence could be seen as an attack on More by his enemies. This is because the torture acts mentioned in Source N were taken from John Foxe’s Book of Martyrs. This book documented the acts of torture and violence against protestants, and would therefor be highly critical of those in high positions, such as More.
One of their major goals was to disrupt and destroy the South Vietnamese government. Orders were actually given to the invaders to cause maximum disruption to the government to create crisis by killing military and administrative personnel. This reason alone would do some serious damage to the government but another tactic was to kill for “…terrorism and warning.” By killing government officials and private citizens it scared the citizens of not just Hue but all over the area into compliance with the National Liberation Front. The communists also wanted to annihilate Christians for political reasons. The communists always tried to suppress religions anyway possible and because of Ngo Dinh Diem being Catholic and in charge of South Vietnam at the start of the resistance to the North.
In this case, a psychotic individual named Daniel M'Naghten intentionally and with premeditation killed an assistant to a prime minister of England because he believed he was being persecuted (Kimberly Collins, Gabe Hinkebein, and Staci Schorgl (3Ls), n.d.). Ever since then, the insanity plea has been used in numerous case throughout the years to try and get people of crimes that knowingly committed, but do not want to admit that they did. What is the significance of the M’Naghten Rule? What is so significant about the M’Naghten rule is that how
This is the turning point for Yossarian as he sees death right in front of his eyes. There were also many symbols in the book. One symbol in the book is when Aarfy raped and killed the girl in Rome. As Yossarian is telling Aarfy that he is going to be arrested, Aarfy denies the fact and insist that he wouldn’t be arrested for killing “her”. This shows how insensitive war makes some men.
In total, at least 7386,000 people were murdered all because tyrannical, self-obsessed leaders wanted to further their own ends. Develop own thoughts and relate them back to the topic. In Arthur Miller’s play ‘The Crucible’ , Abigail Williams acts as a catalyst for the literal witch hunt which ensues, a parallel for the metaphorical witch hunt that played out in the Unites States in the ‘50s and ‘60s as any person with a link to the Communist party was “hunted out” and forced to confess at the HUAC. Abigail creates massive conflict in Salem, pointing the finger away from her own mistakes, pretending to act as ‘God’s finger’. However when she realizes she has an opportunity to further her own ends even further; where she and john Proctor can be together again.
“Manson and the Family were hoping to place blame away from their mission of salvation-through-murder” and the following night the Family members killed prominent businessman Leno LaBianca and his wife Rosemary in the same fashion in their home (Charles Manson 2). Manson later informed authorities that he had staged these gruesome murders to launch an apocalypse called, “helter skelter”. The crimes the family committed were designed to implicate black militants, thereby provoking a white reaction. These events would then lead to a “race war” and the war would end with the Manson Family as rulers of the earth. This radical notion that Manson and his family concluded was something that was beyond the Hippie’s doctrine of “freedom”.
