Hey, thanks thunderfist... You posted one minute before me while i was still typing. I guess i didnt catch that part in the story. Question anwsered!
it says in the book that they believe Killing a mockingbird is a sin, so the author chose that title becuase it shows the beliefs of the old south, and becuase the book potrays the sinful nature of humanity.
I don't get it either. "It's a sin to kill one blah blah blah."
I think Scout should do it just to see if she goes to hell.
no killing mockings birds is refering to killing the innocent. the mocking birds are supposed to represent the innocent.
Thats an interesting way to look at it.
Well its very simple. In the South they use mockingbirds to represent people, and they do not want you to shoot at people.
I'm guessing that someone is going to be charged with something they didn't do. Like thebirdsandthebees10 said, the mockingird probably represents a person. Then, since this book has something to do with racism, the person on trial will probably be black.
better than you...that was funny.
