What Role Does Rainsford Play In The Most Dangerous Game

Zaroff is the villain and main antagonist in Richard Connell’s short story The Most Dangerous Game. Zaroff enjoys sadistically hunting and killing people that wash up on his island’s shores, and if the people refuse to be hunted by Zaroff; they are tortured by Ivan, his faithful lackey. Zaroff is not a saint by any standard but he would be found not guilty in a modern day court and the best option would be to tell sailors to stay away from the island. Zaroff is not a threat to society at large as he only hunts the people that are unfortunate enough to get stranded on his island. Admittedly, he does capsize ships but his methods are not hurting society at large and his island is his own society.

Clearly he did not have the right coping skills and support to teach him how to deal with them. He took his feelings out on other people and their families thinking it was just a way of revenge and that it was normal. Which is why we call Allan a serial killer and a sociopath. The definition of a serial killer is a person who murders 3 or more people. A sociopath is someone who kills or harms another person or thing without feeling any

This sounds like it would be a very sad place to live and if I were not personally living in it I would feel awful for the people that were. Imagine thinking about another society that all had handicaps and you being able to keep that thought in your head and not them. This is why I would not like to live in a utopia like this. In “The Most Dangerous Game” General Zaroff gets bored with hunting animals and decides that he can hunt humans that get trapped on his island. When a world renowned hunter gets caught on his island he decides to treat him like a friend instead of prey.

The thing he wants to do the most, kill humans. “I am strong, I hunt the scum of the earth”(17). He only kills them because he wants to hunt something that can reason, something that can change its mind when faced with a life or death situation. “But they are men,” said Rainsford hotly. “Precisely,” said the general”(17).

After she attacks, she ended up running back to her cave where Beowulf finds her there and ends up killing her. While most men are serial killers, Aileen Wuornos wasn’t. Sociopaths are not someone you want to be messing with. Sociopaths don 't necessarily have malicious feelings toward others, so they tend to treat others as objects. Sociopaths have a sense of rage and they often feel angry with themselves and others so they will act out.

They think that pit bulls attack people for no reason but they don't. The reason that pit bulls are mean is because of its owner. Pit bulls were made to protect its owner. But, sadly the owner's teaches the dogs to fight and do horrible things to other people. According to the site,"People treat the pit bulls very badly"("The Problem with People not Pit Bulls").

Back down? They’re so wrapped up in a different culture – what I’m trying to say is – they’re in the wrong culture; the culture that promotes killing an officer. Young people use the legacy of racism as an excuse, it’s not a race issue at all. The fact is the brute attacked me, I couldn’t get my taser so I shot him and I had to keep shooting or else I would

In a passage written by, Ryan Wilson, Kaepernick states that his reasoning for his protest is, “ I am not going to stand up to show pride in a flag for a country that oppresses black people and people of color”...”To me this is bigger than football and it would be selfish on my part to look the other way. There are bodies on the street and people getting paid leave getting away with murder” Both of these quotes support both the corruption and racism. The fact that police, and other people are getting paid to keep the streets “clean and safe” by murdering groups of people that may...or may not be innocent, without listening or even trying to resolve the issue just because of skin color is a problem. It is more or a personal issue is you cannot do your job without being suspicious of every single person, simply because they are different than you. My second reasoning for this topic is that, even though so much attention is being drawn to Kaepernick, no one is seeing the real problem with all of this.

The criminal called it a “thrill kill” he just wanted to feel the sensation of taking someone 's life. Actions like these should never be shown mercy regardless of age it is a horrifying image to imagine someone being brutally murdered for the sake of someone else 's pleasure as someone who is practically the same age as the offender this is incredibly difficult to stomach even more so to comprehend why anyone would think this action deserves a punishment

I found that the “Tell Tale Heart” and the “Read Death” by Poe had their similarities. In the “Red Death” the Prince was blind to his actions. The Prince was insensitive to the people suffering in his country and had no intentions to help them because he was safe. In the end he was subjected to his fate that being death. In “Tell Tale Heart” the main character was also greedy and committed murder, for a reason being that a man’s eye bothered him.
