Romes swag punishment

• Romeos punishment is more than fair.  He killed a man and he is lucky he didn't die.  Three reasons are he killed someone, he wasn't that hgih of imoportance, and a part of the kingdom hated him with a burnign passion.  He killed a person like if you kill someone in america you will most likely have the death penalty he is luck he did not get hung.  "Romeo slew Tybalt.  Romeo must not live"(Shakespeare).   Romeo is gone but i feel like he should have died or imprisoned and he just got a simple banishment.  He isn't that big factor in the kingdom he is not a difference maker like he doesn't help people he is just sort of there.  People were not a fan of him like the queen and a big part of the capulets population.  That is why Romeo punishment is more than fair and he really should have it a bit harsher.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                               

Romeos punisment

             I think Romeo's punishment of being banished is fair, for killing Tybalt. I think so because, Tybalt started the fight and killed Mercutio. That was Romeo's best friend, and he had a reason to kill where Tybalt did not. Tybalt was mad that they went to a Capulet party uninvited, but they did no harm so why try to hurt or kill them? For example, Tybalt said " This by his voice should be a Montague. Fetch me my rapier, boy. What dares the slave come hither, covered with an antic face, to fleer and scorn at our solemnity? Now by the stock and honour of my kin, to strike him dead I hold it not a sin." (act 1 scene 5)

Romeos punishment

Romeo's Punishment.

Romeo’s punishment was fair because Romeo did kill someone in the first place. Just because Romeo killed someone i feel like it’s still sorta okay because the person Romeo killed was Tybalt and Tybalt killed Mercutio. Therefore if you look at it in the type of way of self defense, Romeo killed someone after that person killed his best friend, he was protecting his friend. Not only did he try to protect his best friend he also saved someone elses worries about trying to deal with Tybalts punishments, Tybalts punishments would have been death probably. I think Romeo's punishment was reasonable because he was protecting his friend, he was saving someones worries.

ROMEOS UNFAIR BANISHMENT

i think romeos banishment is unfair. i think it is unfair because tybalt was the one who started the whole thing. tybalt killed mercutio, and on the other hand, romeo did kill tybalt in return, so he got banished by the prince as he demonstrates (scene 1,act 3,line 180-185)" And for that offence immediately we do exile him hence."   indeed it is also unfair because he is young and doesn't have a job or any where to live outside of Verona except for the streets. then i think it was also unfair because he is a Montague. i think that if he were a Capulet and killed a Capulet over the same thing they would of let him stay in Verona and the worst thing they could have done to him was throw him in jail. that is why romeos banishment is unfair.

the punishment that he deserved.

          Romeos punishment is completely fair because he killed Tybalt when there were other ways to deal with Mercutio’s death. It was fair that he got banished because he can hardly live without Juliet and the guilt of him killing Tybalt is already killing him inside. That’s how he should’ve dealt with his best friend’s death. Also, romeo shouldn't have killed Tybalt just because he was "mad" Tybalt could've had the same guilt that romeo had before he got killed.

yes i do because he should have been killed but he was told to vanished. so i think its fair.

Romeo's Unfair Punishment

Romeo’s punishment is not fair.  It is not fair because Prince said that if the families got in a fight again, the punishment would be death.  Another reason that it is not fair is because Romeo was the last one to strike and kill.  The last reason is that the punishment was too soft, they are letting him go after killing someone out of anger.  The Prince clearly states to the Montagues and Capulets, “If you ever disturb our streets again, your lives shall pay the forfeit of the peace.” (Act. 1 Scene. 1).  Despite the Prince threatening their lives, he still went soft on his punishment against Romeo.  Romeo clearly started the fight between himself and Tybalt because he is the one who said, “This shall determine that.” (Act. 3 Scene. 3).  This means that he was challenging Tybalt and causing his own banishment.

Romes Punishment

      I think Romeo's punishment isn't fair , I understand the rage he had, his best friend was just killed. Tybalt shouldn't have put himself in that situation. Tybalt deserved to die. First off Tybalt killed Mercutio for no reason . It is equal a Montague and Capulet was killed. I think if  Romeo was killed that would've started an all out killing spree.        ******Not Finished******

Personally, I do in fact believe that Romeo's Punishment was fair. Not only because he killed another man, but also because instead of "facing the music" per say; he ran away from where he killed Tybolt. If anything, Romeo got incredibly lucky; thanks to his father Romeo's sentence was reduced from immediate death, to just banishment. Its understandable that Romeo had a clear motive to have killed Tybolt- but was taking another's life worth avenging his best friend? That's a question, left to Society's standards and that persons morals.

romeos punishment is not fair due to the fact that Tybolt killed Mercuchio and back then its more like a life for a life, an eye for an eye.  He deserves to go on trial for his crimes.  He should get death though which was his original punishment.  Though with Romeos circumstances it makes it hard to kill him. So banishment is the only punishment.

Why Romeo should be banished

Romeo's punishment is in every way fair because he had a reason for killing Tybalt, Mercutio was killed in vein for no reason but for Romeo trying to bring peace between the two, so Romeo was angry to the point where he could kill someone. Romeo was just trying to be happy with Juliet but if they can't have that Romeo that is "in love" and would die for that woman. Romeo is love struck but it truly isn't true and he is going to be sent away, they are going to be foolish and try and kill themselves. The punishment Romeo received was truly justified, he deserved to be banished and to be gotten rid of for killing a man.

The punishment of Romeo

        I believe that romeo's punishment is fair. The first reason why is because the Prince said that the next quaril will be punished by death. He is allowed to be near Verona not a continent away. he can still see Juliet because friar Lawrence said he will help unite them.

Romeo and Juliet

In Romeo and Juliet, when Romeo kills Tybalt in revenge, his punishment should have been death as the prince had commanded, in any civilized country "capital punishment" or the death penalty is the right punishment for the murder of another human being. Another reason that romeo should be put to death is that he is married to the opposite party. not only is this a autracity but this is civily incorrect, thaat would be like a north korean and a south korean getting married, it just doesnt work.

romeos punishments

Romeos punishment is very bad considering he murdered somebody which in those times in  humanity store from somebody will be executed. The honesty no reason to kill Tybalt because of the bad signal not harm him and it was not a self defence he was just killing his best friend which is no reason to kill. Romeo is just killing because he cannot face the fact that he is a complete phony. Do you love one girl and then decides to move on to another war and in the process he sleeps with Juliet and probably knocks her up. I have a really bad feeling that Romeo has ETA is Steve post dramatic stress disorder. Only I was just about to deal with the bags that is Aksarben there is nothing to do with the end if that means he has to kill Arthur's wife just to get to then that's fine if you moved on from one job to another.

Was it Fair?

I think that Romeo’s punishment was fair. It was Fair because Romeo did kill tybalt, the punishment for murder is death, and tybalt killed mercutio. Romeo killed tybalt therefore he can't just be allowed to roam freely he has to be punished somehow and I think banishment is a suitable punishment. The punishment for murder is death and since Romeo killed tybalt he should die but the prince is being nice and only banishing him which is a blessing compared to death. Mercutio suggest, “ Come sir, your passado”. [They fight mercutio falls]. Tybalt killed Mercutio and although Romeo was just trying to redeem his friend's murder and trying to save himself because Tybalt did want to kill him and probably would if he got a chance he did kill Tybalt and needs to be punished by banishment.

Yes Romeo's punishment is fair because he has killed another person and should be sent to death. friar Lawrence agrees when he says "o deadly sin, o rude unthankfulness. thy fault our lawcalls death, but the kind prince, taking thy part hath rushed aside the law and turned that black word death to banishment. this is dear mercy and thou seest it not."(III,iii). Another reason why this decision is fair because the prince says it is.

Romeo's Punishment

I both believe that Romeos punishment is fair and not fair. I believe this because he did kill a man. But in the same since Tybalt did also kill his best friend. Any sane person would have lost there mind if they would have  scene  there best friend get murdered right in front of there eyes. Would you have just sat there and not retaliated in any way shape or form? No, you would have done something to help with the pain. I do however think that in the  same since his punishment was fair because he did commit a serious crime and  needed to be punished. I do believe that the only reason he was not sent to receive the death penalty because someone on the other side of the family had done the same thing. Romeo should be grateful for the fact that the punishment he got was all he received. The only issue now is how he and Juliet will stay together. He made the mistake he now has to face the consequences.

Romeo's Punishment

Romeos punishment was being banished from Verona instead of receiving the death penalty. Romeo’s punishment was fair because of the fact he killed Tybalt out of anger, he was defending himself, and he wasn’t in his right mind at the moment. Romeo describes his anger by stating “Alive, In triumph, and Mercutio slain away to heaven respective lenity, and fire eyed fury be my conduct now! Now Tybalt take the villain back again that late thou gavst me, for Mercutio soul is but a little way above our heads.” (Act III, Scene 1) This results in Romeo making the decision he did on getting revenge back on Tybalt. Romeo was defending himself by the fact that Tybalt and Romeo were arguing before Romeo drew his sword to stab him. At the time that Tybalt killed Mercutio, Romeo was filled with so much rage and anger that is resulted in him making the decision he did. This is proving that Romeo’s punishment was fair since the judge felt sorry for Romeo and decided to spare his life going against the court rules.

Romeo and Juliet. Emma Long

Romeo's punishment is fair because he got it better then he would have before. I think they gave Romeo not as bad as a punishment because if it were someone else  he would have gotten killed. Just because he was a good person and would never do that it made him seems like an outcast because know one new that he would do that. That's how Romeo's punishment was fair.

Is romeos punishment fair or not

Romeos punishment to me is very fair and I think that what they did actually helped him because he could have been killed and if he stayed then he would have cause many more fight because he  lived and got no punishment also I think that Romeos would have made things worse with their families than they already were and he could have been the person to either get everyone  killed or start  a war because on one side they killed Romeos best friend and on the other hand Romeo killed one of the kings most trusted men and Romeo to them deserve to be killed  and it also might have saved him because if Romeo stayed then they would have killed Romeo most likely any ways so I do believe that he punishment was fair and maybe saved many lives by kicking Romeo out including his own.
