mice of men

   It's not fair! If you were born with a disability and can only remember what one person tells you. It's not fair! If you love animals and petting something soft but can't because of your disability. It's not fair that you should die because of your disability. You are not the problem, having a disability is. So what happens if half the people on the planet have a disability. Do we kill half our population? Lennie the main character in the book mice of men had this disability, and he did not deserve to die.

   This animal loving, emotional, and friendly BIG guy had a disability that controlled his life. His disability also led to his death. Starting his life living with his aunt carol on a farm this big guy loved animals. though he killed a few mice by petting them to hard.  After he killed some mice this pattern of death continued. He later killed a small pup upset with himself for he said to the girl he killed later "if george finds out about this i won't get to tend dem wabbits." No this big guy did not mean any harm but his excitement got the best of him. If the animal or person he loved to rub so much did so much as panic under his grip his mind would pause with confusion where he would hold it tightly without knowing what else to do. One more movement under his grip will give you a broken neck and another dead innocent killed by an incident. 

   The only death that was shocking by the end of this book was his own. Killed by his right hand travel buddy of whom he loved so dearly shot him the back of the head. For Lennie was a monster and could do no good for himself  let alone some one else. Though he was great at working  no one wants to risk another dead body. His closest friend was george, the only person who understands lennie and was his protector. In the beggining of the book one of the characters let a stranger shoot his own dog in the back of the head. George was not going to let that happen with lennie. He was responsible for lennie so he was the one to kill him.
