Sam Cayhall's Letter

312 Words2 Pages

Dear Sir or Madam I write you this letter with the purpose this letter will appear in your local newspaper “The Echo”. I write this in the name of the entire Jewish organization The Atlantic Jewish Council. We all know about the judgement of Sam Cayhall. There are people who say he doesn’t deserve the death penalty, and other people are realistic and know he has to disappear from this world. I think it is not difficult to understand to which opinion we belong. How can people still say that Sam Cayhall is a good person who makes a better world because he killed ‘bad’ and ‘wrong’ persons? Of course his friends from the Ku Klux Klan, a cult of people blinded by their racism, say those statements. The people he killed did not fit in his

  • Orlando Brown's Letter To William Medill

    1607 Words  | 7 Pages

    A letter from William Bent to William Medill on Nov. 10th 1846 states that the “Agents and Subagents are absolutely necessary for the regulation and control of the various tribes of Indians above named. A very desirable effect might be produced upon the Indians by sending a delegation from each tribe to Washington.” Bent provides the numbers of souls and ledges of each of the tribes in New Mexico, totalling 36,950 people from ten different tribes. In later letters, when Calhoun writes to Orlando Brown regarding adding resources to the Indian office in Santa Fe, including more agents and subagents, Brown is unwilling to offer such resources. The lack of allocation of agents could have been due to the change in authority in Washington as opposed to personal preference; this theory seems unsustainable.

No one was trying to stop the Ku-Klux Klan at all. They acted like what the Ku-Klux Klan was doing was normal and were too scared to confront or stop them (Colby 513). Northerners were racist towards African-Americans.

    Georgie Milton did something not many people have the guts to do, he took the life of his best friend to save him from the torture that awaited him, but, he took the life of another man and he took this life with the intention of murder. Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, there is no difference between euthanasia and murder; and to this indictment, George Milton has pleaded not guilty. If I am to prove him otherwise, you must find him so. Lennie Small has been described to us as a caring giant. He had no bad intentions; and it is fair to say that our witnesses have provided us with sufficient evidence to support my argument.

  • Tom Robinson Letter To The Jury Analysis

    351 Words  | 2 Pages

    Dear Members of the Jury, I am writing you this letter to tell to you that Tom Robinson should be proven not guilty. This case would have never happened if the truth would have been told and it wasn’t a case between black and white. There are many ways that Robinson is not guilty. One of these reasons that Tom Robinson is not guilty is that if you listened to the Sheriff 's testimony he stumbled frequently and when he said something and then Atticus would say something different he would agree with Atticus. Tom Robinson is a very polite man with great manners, which you could take into consideration that he wouldn’t dare hurt this woman in this kind of manner.

  • Martin Luther King Jr.'s Letter From Birmingham Jail

    1302 Words  | 6 Pages

    I believe that paragraphs 9 and 12 from Martin Luther King Jr.’s “Letter from Birmingham Jail” are the strongest paragraphs in this letter of his. These paragraph is so profound and truly explain why segregation is unjust in two short paragraphs. They don’t go into a lot of detail on why segregation is unjust, because they don’t need to. They’re argument is strong enough with how short they are. Since these paragraphs give an easy to understand and short reasoning as to why segregation is unjust, explains what makes a law just or unjust, and show that just laws can be unjust when applied to situations such as segregation, I believe they are the strongest paragraphs in this letter.

  • Samuel Johnson's Dismissal Letter Rhetorical Analysis

    1043 Words  | 5 Pages

    At the point when a letter or other structure is submitted, for example, a school application, or an AP test, there is dependably a sentiment trust and fervor when holding up in the reaction. Be that as it may, if the reaction returns with refusal, or negative news, all trusts are gone, and emotions are smashed. Samuel Johnson does a great job in creating his refusal to prescribe a lady 's child for support to a college, he deliberately constructs his contention against conversing with the bishop and step by step assembles support for his position. His denial is most checked by, and effective because of, an unpretentious move in tone, the application of logos, and the utilization of definitions and reasons. Consolidated, these devices effectively convey Johnson 's unwillingness to complete his reply while as yet permitting him to stay cordial.
