The plan was to urge the council to take back public land held by large land owners and to redistribute it to the landless Romans. Senators were furious by this proposal and had the two brothers assassinated further after. There was absolutely no voice for the plebes in the roman republic.

His brutal descriptions of the slave’s treatment seem to prove his motives positive. It seems that he wants others to be disgusted by these wrong doings, just as he was. It is said in his writing, The Very Relation of the Devastation of the Indies, “And the Christians, with their horses and swords and pike began to carry out massacres and strange cruelties against them.

If John pleads guilty to the charges, he will have to spend a short time in jail; but when he is asked to sign a paper to make it known to all that he was with the devil, he could not. His integrity was too strong to let him lie to himself or in any way, tie his name to a lie. Reverend Hale tries to convince Elizabeth to save her husband, but she admits that at last, John is at peace with himself, and she won’t interfere with that. His choice was to die an honorable and honest man.
Jefferson says, “We hold these truths to be self-evidence, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain inalienable Rights that among these are Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness” (Jefferson, 80).

Aristotle argues that material is what an object consist of and this matter we could not live without.
