(To Kill a Mockingbird)

Answer:

I do not think that Mr Gilmer's line of questions was in pursuit of truth and justice

Explanation:

Mr Gilmer was the prosecuting lawyer in the case of Tom Robinson, a black African American man who was accused of raping and strangulating a white American lady.

As the prosecuting counsel, Mr Gilmer's responsibility was to prove that Mr Tom Robinson was guilty as charged. However his lines of questioning displayed a very unprofessional, unethical as well as racially inclined personality

He was consistently rude to the accused, calling him a boy even on one occasion.

His racist tendencies was revealed when under pressure Mr Tom Robinson said he felt sorry for Mayella, the white lady who he was accused of raping. Mr Gilmer gleefully took advantage of the situation and asked rhetorically how could a black man feel sorry for a white lady; suggesting that a black person was inferior to a white person and hence, could not be feeling sorry for her unless he had ulterior motives.

Hence I do not think that considering his line of questioning, that he was after true justice.

What is asthma?? plz telll me​
vlabodo [156]

Answer:

Asthma is: A condition in which a person's airways become inflamed, narrow and swell, and produce extra mucus, which makes it difficult to breathe.

Asthma can be minor or it can interfere with daily activities. In some cases, it may lead to a life-threatening attack.

Asthma may cause difficulty breathing, chest pain, cough, and wheezing. The symptoms may sometimes flare-up.

Asthma can usually be managed with rescue inhalers to treat symptoms and controller inhalers that prevent symptoms. Severe cases may require longer-acting inhalers that keep the airways open, as well as oral steroids.
