Indifference and Hate
In my opinion indifference is alot worse then hate. Not caring at all means the the person or people don't matter at all, at least when you hate someone you are thinking about them. the only reason why hate might be worse is if you hate someone enough you will do anything in your power to hurt them either physically or emotionally, but if you dont care then thier feelings dont matter at all which means harsher acts. In the case of Night hate is worse because so many people hate the jews enough to get the completely demolished. But overall i think indifference is worse than hate.

Romeo and Juliet

Who Caused of all the Deaths?
Who caused all the characters deaths in Romeo and Juliet? Well some would say it was Lord Capulet or the Friar but I think it was Romeo’s fault. The young lovesick boy was much to rash, which caused him to make poor choices. For example marrying Juliet the day after he met her, or killing Tybalt, Juliet’s cousin because of rage. These decisions were not completely thought through and just made everything worse.
In the story the marriage scene is supposed to be a happy and joyous occasion, in truth it caused a lot of conflict. Romeos decision to marry the day after he met Juliet was a very bad one. He rushed the wedding without thinking it through or discussing it with his family. This shows how rash Romeo really is. He was so caught up with the love he had for Juliet that he didn’t even think about what he was about to do. The only reason the friar let Romeo marry the girl so quickly is because he thought it would end the feuds and it did just ended a lot of life’s as well.
Another poor decision on Romeo’s part was killing Tybalt. He went after Juliet’s cousin only for revenge, because Tybalt killed Mercutio Romeos best friend. He was so angry that he didn’t think about what would happen if he killed Tybalt. His quick decision led him to banishment and to the death of himself and Juliet. When Romeo went after Tybalt it might have been the worst decision of his life. He didn’t stop at all to think about what he was doing. I wonder if Romeo wouldn’t have killed Tybalt would Juliets cousin kill Romeo?
Romeo had an issue of letting his emotions take over, which is why he was so rash. All of the poor decisions he made are really what caused all the deaths in the play. But in the end it may have been better off. He did something that nobody thought would happen, he ended the feud that started this all. Many people may have died but others forgave and moved on.
