It is human nature for people to always want to be more powerful and they will never be at ease. Though the civil war occurred over a hundred years ago, the dispute continues. People do not seem to want the disagreements to end, for they keep contributing to the hate and the separation of people based on their race. It seems as if it were literally part of their nature as humans to want to live a life that is not at ease with it's surroundings. It seems that people are naturally drawn to having disagreements because the people of Guthrie, Tennessee cannot seem to get over their ancestors disagreements and move on with their lives. Though everyone tried to seem like they were the victim in this situation, this is not a black and white situation, and everyone is at fault.
People went about town not teaching their children about morals and respect. They had all been brainwashed by their parents and nobody was brave enough to break the cycle. These kids were not informed about what they were doing, but for some reason, someone ended up dead. They were fighting over something ridiculous because they did not even know why they were fighting. Freddy, the African-American boy who shot and killed a Caucasian boy, Michael, saw that he had a confederate flag and the only thing he knew about this flag was that he had seen it before in The Dukes of Hazard. Michael was driving in a black neighborhood on Martin Luther King Jr. Day with a confederate flag on his car, which his wife had mentioned, he only had on there because it matched his red truck.
It is obvious that these kids simply got into a nonsense fight because of their slight differences and the issue simply got out of hand. In the part where the murder happens, Freddie tells his friends that he has a gun. "No you don't" they tainted. It really seemed like none of these kids were taking any of this seriously. After this happened Freddy shot Michael and everything from there went downhill, and everybody in town was began to argue that they were the victims in the case because they "wanted justice for their people."
