SoS2

I find Guitar's murder club weird. I can't recall why, but such a violent idea seems really familiar. Maybe I'm just thinking of that saying "an eye for an eye", but the kind of group sounds familiar. Regardless, though I understand the logic, it's obviously wrong. I think the level of ridiculousness in the racial prejudice is shown by Morrison to the extreme degree that it is brought out at. Yes, four little girls would mirror the unfair deaths, but it's four innocent young girls. I think that the immorality of it is shown through his concern of money rather than life. Also (in a much deadlier degree) it's incredibly childish and doesn't solve anything. It's like when a sibling steals something some you steal something of their and you both keep on stealing from each other and both of you are missing things and nothing is solved. As dumb an analogy as that sounds, it parallels the ineffectively and negative effects of the point the group is attempting to get across.
