Chapter 9 and 11

In the end of chapter 9 Simon was killed and beaten to death because he was wondering through the night and Jack and his followers saq him and they were too caught up in what was happening because they were doing a ritual to call the rain to them. I don't think that if they didn't end up on the island together than those murders wouldn't have happend. If they were in civilization than they might not have had contact with each other and they would have lived their normal lives and not had the influence that they had. Being a hunter can overwhelm you and all of the sudden you can have the sudden urge to kill something and then that could lead to them murdering someone. Being a hunter can have its advantages and disadvantages but when you're killing more than just animals for food than you know there is something wrong with you mentally. The Savages are thinking they are doing it for survival but you can't survive without the smartest people and Piggy and Simon were the wisest and knew what was supposed to be done on the island. I think that their future for the older ones could possibly lead to jail and serious counsling. For the littleuns they might not remember but seeing two people murdered right infront of your eyes than that can dramatize you for a long time and hopefully that won't lead to issues with their future. Maybe Jack and Roger will continue to kill but the others might not. They know what they did and at the time they really didn't care about what happend to Piggy and Simon. If they actually were in their right set of minds then they could notice that killing someone for power and satisfaction isn't the right way of getting rid of someone. They are forever killers because you can't get away from the fact that you killed 2 people for no reason because they weren't following your orders and they were not in your group.
