Gladiator

After Maximus reveals his name to Comudus and the crowd of the Coliseum, Maximus leaves proudly the Arena saying nothing. Besides Comudus is astonished , he never expected that Maximus, the men that he ordered to kill a long time ago was there in front of him and he can’t do anything against him, because the people supports Maximus known as the Spaniard. Comudus finally leaves the Arena with the head down. He goes into the corridors of the Coliseum. He stops in front of a stone door, he opened the door and entered to a room, that has only a table in the middle and two sits. In the shadows of the room a person was waiting for the Emperor.

Comudus: ‘Hitting the table with anger’ How could this happened, I remember that I said clearly “kill him”; I felt the people and him were laughing at me, it was the embarrassing thing that had ever happened to me. And what do I have to do now? I can kill him, or else the people will hate me more than what they do now.

Adviser: My lord, I suggest you make a strategy to decrease the popularity of this gladiator. You can make bad advertising of the Spaniard, spread rumours.

Comudus: But that would not necessarily make me more popular to the people. And anyway, how can I kill him without making the people anger.

Adviser: ‘Walking around the room’ If you want to be more popular you can give away bread and other foods to the people, they would by happy with, the people is easy to satisfy. The other problem is even easier; you can challenge him to a battle that’s something he will not reject.

Comudus: But what if he kills me I can be sure that I will succeed in the battle.

Adviser: ‘Smiling’ That will be not a problem, before the battle you have to order someone to make him a lethal injury, so when he enters to the arena he will be weak and about to die, there is no a reason chance that you can lose.

Comudus: ‘Smiling with wickedness’ So what are we waiting to put out the plan.

‘Comudus and the adviser leave the room’

Letter

Prime Minister David Cameron

Downing Street 10

Dear Mr Cameron

I am writing to express my cocern about the consecuences of the murders of the called Bloody Sunday. I understand that the some people want to take the soldiers that murder that people to justice.

I am particulary concerned about what soldiers are going to be condemn to prision. The soldiers had orders of their supiriors to open fire if they saw a protestan doing something weird or danger for the people ( in the protest and out of it). It is important to recognise the principal guilty is are the supiriors that were in charge of the operation of the Bloody Sunday, but some soldiers were as guilty as them. Some soldiers opened fire with no reson, only one (private T) open fire because a protestant was hurting onather. Aside if this soldier, the other ones a must be hited with all the wieght of law.

The fact is that the soldiers and supiriors must face the law as they were comun people. The can not be inmune because they were part of the army, they had made a mistake and they have to pay for it. Do you know how it feels to lose a close familiar and bisede to know that the ones who did this are not going to be punisht. People who were not involved in the protest were murder by this soldiers. They were pasing trow that place and were shoot for nothing.

The consequence of this will be very damaging for society. People will not feel save with a soldier at his side because they think the can do anything they wanted with a gun. People will feel that if you are a soldier you can kill anyone and does not have to face the law. Therefore this episode has became a burden for people in North England, I think that if you condemn the soldiers, as it should be, the conflicts on North Ireland will be in under control, people in North Ireland wants justice.

It is for this reasons that I think that the soldiers must be condemn, each one for his case, and that the supiriors must be condemn with even more sentence than the soldiers, because they were the ones in charge of the mision. I think this actions will help the goverment to fortify the relationship beetwen the British goverment and the North Irish people.

Your Sincerely

Felipe Fuentes
