Miss Maudie Wrong or Right? - Faraes Wubshet

Miss Maudie showed us a big part of what type of person she was right before the court, while everyone was going their. Miss Maudie decided not to go, and had quite a attitude going towards why people went their like it was a sports event while a person's life hanged in the balance. So she didn’t go. The obvious answer would be she did the right thing for the right reason, but I would like to challenge that. My main point is why would you just stay at your home and do nothing, instead of giving support to Atticus.
If Miss Maudie went to the court, she could have supported Atticus, instead of staying at home doing nothing. Instead of doing nothing she might be able to help save a fellow human’s life. However she just stayed at home. I believe she could of gave support to Tom Robinson, but I believe the reason she stayed at home, is because if she voiced her opinion, and would get torn for it. I’m not saying she’s a bad person, but I do believe she is making the wrong decision.

It might sound I'm ranting of Miss Maudie, but I’m not. I'm just trying to say you shouldn’t speak up about something, without doing anything about it. I would say Miss Maudie has a point, and why would people be excited to see someone’s life to be taken away, but she should be their instead of not going to protect her views. I see it would be best fit to protect Tom Robinson at court. That’s why I think her response is wrong.Image result for attitude meme
