Journal #7

Perspective: Atticus

I mean I cant think all this is going on. I lost my case and all because they have no rights for a black man. Wow, they really have no heart to this. I mean I bet Tom Robinson wouldnt do such things as this, he's a nice guy, he knows hes not suppost to do that. I talked to the jury for a while because it depended on the jury if they thought Tom Robinson was guilty or not. Juge Taylor is nice but I mean we have to have our rights to. Just because I help African Americans doesnt mean I love them. I mean we should all be treated the same. "Nigger-lover", yes its been repeated to me lots of times, it doesnt matter because I know I'm doin the right thing.Judge Taylor thinks that I did my best as a Lawyer, but there was no chace I could win this because if a white women says that shes been raped by a black guy, the black guy is for sure guilty.
It doesnt really matter any more, right now the only thing that should matter right now is how Tom Robinson should get out of jail if hes innocent!
Uggg! Things happen for a reason but I believe that sooner or later this problem would get solved. Mayella, that little 19 and one half years old. She probably doesnt have much education, and she probably has no idea that it was her father. I can prove anything in that court even that it was Bob Ewell that did it, because she got hit on the right eye and someone who has to be a left handed should probably be the cause of it.
Well, the case is over. But about Jem and Scout, they got away with watching the end of my statement. Calpurnia, yeah she had to come. I couldnt believe that she came into the court house, I was almost on shock. Well, this was the end.
