Bob Ewell is a very bad man. After Atticus defends Tom Robinson, Bob is embarrassed and angry because he realizes Atticus exposed his lies. Because of this, he”… stopped Atticus on the post office corner, spat in his face, and told him he’d get him.” (Lee 217) Bob is disrespectful and vindictive. A good man would understand Atticus was doing his job, but Bob cares about himself. This selfishness leads to others realizing he’s worthless in the community. While he’s trying to fulfill his treat to Atticus and murder Jem and Scout, Boo Radley kills him. Rather than be upset, Mr. Tate, the sheriff, tells Atticus, “There’s a black boy dead for no reason and the man responsible for it is dead. Let the dead bury the dead.”

I think that he is not guilty for commiting the murder. The reason is because they said that they didn’t find any finger prints on the knife. That also they said that the knife was like one of a kind. Then numbers eight said” I bought a knife just like the knife the boy had”. So that means that their could be more knifes just like it.

Guilty or Not Guilty We all form opinions. Some are about clothes,skin color. Cause in 12 angry men they form an opinion about a boy. They are trying to decide as a jury if a boy is guilty or not guiltyfor killing his father. To me I think he is not guilty because of jury #8. The reason is because he brings up a lot of good points. One of the good points the jury #8 brought up,was about the knife. He takes out the knife and shows everybody. Then he pulls out another knife that he bought at a junk shop around the corner of the boys house for two dollars. He also brings up that the boy is handy with a knife. The second point is that the women saw the boy stabed his father through the train windows. But jury #9 brought up that he saw marks on her nose from glasses. Then he explains that you cant wear glasses at night while your going to bed. She also said she looked up and saw the boy stab his father. So she couldn’t of seen the boys face. The third point was that an old man said that heard the boy say “I’m going to kill you.” Then he heard a body hit the ground. Then jury #8 brings up that the boys apartments are next to each other and they are right by the train tracks. And the women saw the killing between the train. Then jury #8 brings up “Have any of you been by a train when it passes?” The sound is unbearable.” So that would mean that the old man wouldn’t be able to hear the murder but really but really couldn’t. Even though these opionions are fictional we need to realize that opinions are important. The opinions we form could stop us from knowing some knowing someone we could really enjoy. Instead we form opinions that arent fair because you don’t know that persons personality before you judged them. So get to know somone before you form opinions.
