In the to stories "The Lottery" by Shirley Jackson and "The Perils of Indifference" by Elis Wiesel there are many different ways that they perform acts of violence. In "The Lottery" the villagers all gather to be entered in a lottery. Once the person is drawn it is decided to kill that person. Even when she begged them not to kill her with rocks and stone they all started throwing rocks at her to kill her. Also in "The Perils of Indifference" there was a boat that was called St. Louis and it was filled with about 1000 Jews, was "already on the shores of the United States, was sent back" to the Germany where Hitler was in power and putting people into concentration camps and killing people. In conclusion there are many reasons that humans perform acts of violence but it doesn't necessarily mean that its right.
