Suicide can be an impulsive decision, as is young love in many cases. In William Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet, Shakespeare connects suicide and love in an inextricable pattern. Romeo and Juliet meet and promptly want to be married. This decision is rash because surely no one can become “in love” in that short amount of time. Juliet takes a potion that will make it appear as though she is dead so that she will not have to marry her suitor Paris, and will be able to run away with Romeo. Juliet’s decision was again made offhand, for she did not properly think things through before taking the poison. After seeing Juliet appear to be dead Romeo makes the reckless decision to take his own life, because he can not bear to live without Juliet. Many of the decisions in Romeo and Juliet are made spontaneously, all correlating with love and death.…

Law was established to benefit the people but sometimes through the abuse of power like police brutality, its enforcement defers its original purpose.…
