Once Tessie is chosen, she freaks out and says how it is not fair. If she would questioned it in previous years, she could have lived, because they might have stopped doing to lottery. Since Tessie never spoke out about the lottery, she was chosen and killed.]]> 2021-09-27 15:22:05 UTC https://padlet.com/janickovicdan/irupd9qf35sv07ia/wish/1771536831 janickovicdan https://padlet.com/janickovicdan/irupd9qf35sv07ia/wish/1771602353 When Tessie finds out that her family had been chosen for the lottery, she says, "You didn't give him time enough to take any paper he wanted. I saw you. It wasn't fair." If Tessie would have said this right when Bill picked his paper, they might have let him redraw a new piece of paper, so that Tessie would have agreed that it was fair. Since she was silent when Bill picked the paper, she had to pay the consequences and ended up dying. ]]> 2021-09-27 15:39:28 UTC https://padlet.com/janickovicdan/irupd9qf35sv07ia/wish/1771602353 janickovicdan https://padlet.com/janickovicdan/irupd9qf35sv07ia/wish/1775129172 In The Hunger Games, all the people in the town just let people control them, and accept that one boy and one girl get chosen to fight to the death. ]]> 2021-09-28 15:45:31 UTC https://padlet.com/janickovicdan/irupd9qf35sv07ia/wish/1775129172 janickovicdan https://padlet.com/janickovicdan/irupd9qf35sv07ia/wish/1776726374 Katniss and her family stayed silent their whole lives and when Katniss's little gets chosen to be in the Hunger Games, Katniss decides to put her own life on the line to protect her sister. ]]> 2021-09-29 03:25:47 UTC https://padlet.com/janickovicdan/irupd9qf35sv07ia/wish/1776726374 janickovicdan https://padlet.com/janickovicdan/irupd9qf35sv07ia/wish/1776744895 The reason that the government has the Hunger Games is to show that they have a lot of power. Another reason is to remind the people of their lack of forgiveness. They know that the people won't fight back in, so they are able to do whatever they want. If the people were to fight back, change could be made.]]> 2021-09-29 03:33:55 UTC https://padlet.com/janickovicdan/irupd9qf35sv07ia/wish/1776744895 janickovicdan https://padlet.com/janickovicdan/irupd9qf35sv07ia/wish/1776751934 2021-09-29 03:37:00 UTC https://padlet.com/janickovicdan/irupd9qf35sv07ia/wish/1776751934 janickovicdan https://padlet.com/janickovicdan/irupd9qf35sv07ia/wish/1776753271 2021-09-29 03:37:31 UTC https://padlet.com/janickovicdan/irupd9qf35sv07ia/wish/1776753271 janickovicdan https://padlet.com/janickovicdan/irupd9qf35sv07ia/wish/1776756524 2021-09-29 03:38:54 UTC https://padlet.com/janickovicdan/irupd9qf35sv07ia/wish/1776756524 janickovicdan https://padlet.com/janickovicdan/irupd9qf35sv07ia/wish/1776759749 2021-09-29 03:40:20 UTC https://padlet.com/janickovicdan/irupd9qf35sv07ia/wish/1776759749 janickovicdan https://padlet.com/janickovicdan/irupd9qf35sv07ia/wish/1776761598 2021-09-29 03:41:12 UTC https://padlet.com/janickovicdan/irupd9qf35sv07ia/wish/1776761598
