Did George Do The Right Thing By Shooting Lennie

The best case scenario would have Lennie locked up in a cage somewhere and as Slim said, “That ain’t no way to live.” George doesn’t want to shoot his friend but turning Lennie around and reciting their farm dream (then shooting him) was the most humane thing to do.

George did the right thing in shooting Lennie. He would just ruin/slow down George’s plans. George did the right thing is because Lennie would do bad thing that made George have to quit his job and finding a job during the great depression was really hard. The author states “God you’re a lot of trouble,” said George.

There was basically a lynch mob out to get him led by Curley who is basically a sociopath.

For Show More Should George Have Killed Lennie’s Death 544 Words | 3 Pages I believe George should have killed Lennie because he has hurt people, can’t control himself, and would have probably ended up in a horrible mental institution anyway. Despite Lennie’s seemingly innocent nature, he hurts many people and animals throughout the story.

I think George did not do the right thing at the end of the book because I believe Lennie still had a reason for living and that should not have been taken away from him. There were plenty of other solutions to Lennie’s problem than killing him.

In the novel of ‘Of Mice and Men’ George and Lennie are best friends, however at the end of the story George shoots Lennie in the back of the head. In this essay I will be discussing George’s motivations for this action. There are two acts of euthanasia in the story, the killing of Candy’s old dog and shooting Lennie.
