Mice & Men

             George did the right thing. Most people would do the same thing,if George does not do it then Curly or Carlson would have killed Lennie or they would have tortured him.That is something a good friend would do.This does not mean that George is a criminal and that George murdered Lennie.George killed Lennie for his own good.

The first reason why George should have killed Lennie is because George would not be able to keep taking care of an over aged mentally retarded man and because Lennie alone is something bad because he would just suffer and would be tortured until death comes and takes over his body.George is not right to the police department but to people who have a heart and are caring its something anybody would do.I’m sure that most of the people who read the book thought that George did the right thing to kill Lennie. Now George would not be suffering.                                                                           One big thing that can happen to Lennie is that he can go to jail.Which is not just stay inside a room with rails with no windows,they beat you up rape you and give you bread and water to eat.This can happen quickly to Lennie because Lennie likes touching soft things such as girls dress,mice,puppies,and girls hair.If he kills a puppy by accident he can go to jail for animal abuse he can also got to jail if he touches a girl and be accused by rape even though he did not mean to do it. The final reason why George should have killed Lennie is because he is useless,Lennie is a good worker but he is old and forgets stuff really fast. Like when George was saying that if he gets in trouble go hide behind the bushes near the river. It took a lot of time to for Lennie to remember that.So the point is that he is getting old and that George would not be able to take care of him.Also,this way George can move on in life faster than with Lennie.

Lennie was lucky to have a friend like George because if George did not do nobody would have done it and he will probably have been in jail right now.Or probably be tortured by Curly or Carlson.
