"Kill them, kill them!" It all made me so sick I most fell out of the tree. I ain't going to tell all that happened......I wished I hadn't ever come ashore that night, to see such things. I ain't ever going to get shut of them...."(119).

Shows that society is uncivilized and full of conflict

"Three big men pointed guns at me, which made me wince, I tell you...."(102).

Society is defensive

Doesn't want their material value to go to waste from a robbery or burglary

"Every time a man died, or a woman died, or a child died, she would be on hand with her "tribute" before he was cold....."(108).

Society is over dramatized because they mourn for the dead

They is drama and love yet all this time there is a brutal class conflict

Uneducated

"The Widow Douglas,, she took me for a son, and allowed she would civilize me"(9).

Huck is considered uneducated by the widow, yet it appears as though the Grangerfords are more uneducated for being violent

"'Don't put your feet up there, Huckleberry....dont scrunch up like that, Huckleberry---set up straight.....Don't gap and stretch like that, Huckleberry--why don't you try to behave?"(10).
