I think in our modern society we do let hysteria take over.
For example when there is a killing or when an accident happens some people
react and do instead of thinking straight and looking at all the options they
have. Even for example when an accidents happen say a little kid gets hurt
playing some mothers automatically cry and expect the worst when in reality its
just a little scratch or bump.
Not only do
people rationally react when something happens to kids, people mostly women let
their emotions get a hold of them when having to do with breakups. They don’t
think clearly and make a fool of themselves. They are over powered with their
broken heart that instead of getting over the break up they make the situation
bigger than it really is.
In the book
the people from the town over react to there being witches and since they are
afraid they let that fear over rule their rational thinking. If they would have
maybe thing would have turned out different and the lives that were lost would
have been saved. People would have
really thought about whom they were accusing and maybe the whole hangings would
never have happened.
