“Which is better to have-- to have law and agree, or hunt and kill?” This quote is said in The Lord of the Flies when piggy, a boy trapped on an island after a plane crash, is trying to reason with a group of boys who do not want rules. Ultimately the boys do not side with Piggy but side with Jack, one of the main leaders who just wants to hunt and kill, and the boys become a society that kills people when they do not agree with them or when they get scared.

By having a manhunt against Ralph, Jack makes a similarity between the book and the article, “Manhunt underway for Cleveland murder suspect who posted video of killing on Facebook: Police.” In
