What Should Howie And Laura Be Tried?

“…dragged from the house on his knees. His face was bloody and when he tried to speak he cried with pain.”

Thoughts of drowning run rampant in every man’s mind on that boat. At dawn, the men decided that their only chance is to row toward the distant shore again and swim when the boat finally capsizes.

In the Lord of the Flies when the British school boys are sent away and their plane crashes they’re stranded on an island without an adult. This leads them to do horrible things to each other. These boys who were stranded, lost every sense of innocence they used to have and that island took it from them. Some terrible things that the boys did was murder each other and slaughter a defenseless mama pig.

There is many examples of differences and similarities of good vs. evil between these boys. At the end of the day these were very young boys put into a horrendous situation that most adults couldn't even handle. Human nature came out in these boys and they just handled it in many different ways but also in many similar ways. I believe their behavior on the island really stemmed from their lives away from the island and their maturity levels for sure. Maybe think about what would be dangerous for you on an island now and if you would succumb to

So Fernanda jumped and “pencil dived” to grab Roene, and it worked! But when Fernanda was grabbing Roene, she dropped the rope and hatchet. When Nathan and I were landing in the water, we had to loosen the chest strap before we landed. Once we landed we had to take it off carefully and let the parachute sink. Roene and Fernanda wanted to save the parachute, for supplies. So before they hit the water, Fernanda dropped Roene into the water, Roene swam away a little. While Fernanda was still in the air she loosened the chest strap and when she landed she took it off. Meanwhile, Roene quickly grabbed the parachute and successfully saved it. We swam towards each other while Nathan inflated the dinghy. We were about a three-minute swim away from each other, but there were some pretty big waves. When we noticed that there were sharks! While the rest of us were panicking, Fernanda discovered that they were whale sharks! She told us that whale sharks don’t eat humans! We were so relieved. While we were paddling to shore, Roene hit Nathan in the head with her oar! Nathan got a concussion, but he was okay since he just lay on the bottom of the dinghy. We were a six-hour paddle

started a big problem at the motel. What this means is It support it because it tells one of the poor choices that they have made The other side of the argument is Laura and Howie excursion was a learning experience that was justifiable by the circumstances they were in. Howie and Laura were too sensitive to take the prank/joke. Howie and laura were not being childish and fhuhs and is still true.

One important reason that Howie and Laura's excursion was not justifiable and was foolish and they should be punished for their actions is that Howie and Laura face trouble everywhere they go. When Howie and Laura arrive at the Dining Hall, Howie begins to be angered by Pardo."The boy kicked him hard in the side of the knee. Pardoe made a loud, ugly sound and fell down on the floor." (Page 85). What this means is Howie and Laura face trouble when Howie ended up in a fight with Pardoe. Howie and Laura also end up making a commotion in the Dining Hall. The other side of the argument is Howie and Laura have been helped by many people along their journey. But the argument that Howie and Laura face trouble everywhere they go is still true. The key

My evidence from the text states,"Damn. Hazel? Check her parking lot. Keep her here, Mrs. Purse. He came out from behind the desk. ‘You're in trouble’ he said”. On page 147. The point is that this piece of evidence helps support my argumentative claim because the man said that Laura was in trouble because of Mrs. Purse. When they were caught in the motel. Of course it is possible to disagree with the view that says Howie and Laura got caught in a motel by someone who was suspicious of them, argue that Howie and Laura went to the hotel to be there for awhile they were not intentionally going to stay there forever. However stronger evidence is on the other side. What must be remembered is that Howie and Laura went to the hotel to be there for awhile they were not intentionally going to stay there forever. This is essentially why Howie and Laura got caught in a motel by someone who was suspicious of them and it connects to the overall position, Laura and Howie encountered a dangerous and malevolent world when they left

One important reason that the world that Laura and Howie encounter is more dangerous and malevolent is that Laura and howie Were misunderstood In the chapter. ” The Restaurant ” The cleaning lady thought that Laura and howie were boyfriend and girlfriend and thought they were doing thing they shouldn’t. ( 142 ) what this means is that howie and laura being misunderstood and that supports that the world is malevolent because the cleaning lady thought that laura and howie were dating. The other side of the argument is that Howie and Laura's world is more caring, supportive, and worth exploring. But the argument that they are teenagers and most teenagers are capable of doing that is still true. The key point is that people should never judge

argue that they were acting foolish because they were with a policeman and they were save with him and some people thing is foolish because they were acting like that. However, stronger evidence is on the other side. What must be remembered is that they didn’t know if he was a cop or not. They just wanted to go home and they didn’t think he was a policeman. This is essentially why They needed to be safe and they didn’t feel like that because they were with a cop that didn’t look like one.

“They used whatever strength they had left to cry. Why had they let themselves be brought here? Why didn’t they die in their beds? Their words were interspersed with sobs. ”(35)

The girls who are accusing other members of the town are trying to get rid of anyone they do not like, therefore removing impurities from their lives. The court is acting on behalf of the law, listening to the girls and condemning people to death. The judges will not even listen to the evidence of others outside of the girls. " Giles: 'I have evidence.

Are we just going to ignore the fact that Laura and Howie, two young kids, broke many laws and could've been severely injured because of their immature and foolish series of actions? Laura and Howie made many decision after being stranded on an island, many of which were not the smartest. They had been living by themselves, making their own decisions, but they seemed to care more about their friendship then safety and survival. After leaving the island they were stranded on, they were being searched for in the whole town, one by one, they were tracked through all their crimes committed. They seemed to be let off loose though, considering they were only kids but their decision were far off worse then to be considered an “only kid crime”. Laura

Pg.137” This piece of evidence proves my claim because it talks about how Laura and Howie both needed to do something to survive because they were hungry and they didn't have that much money to spend for both of them. Some might argue that Laura and Howie excursion was not a learning experience, that it was foolish because Laura and Howie both needed to survive, but instead they cause all this trouble for everyone to find them both and figure out what happened with

Cut his throat! Spill his blood!” This is a example of how savage and war like they have become. They are so uncivilized that they've killed one of their own and for kids to kill a human this truly is war like. The final point that needs to be shown is when the group goes out to kill Ralph ''
