The Elite question

My reaction would have been more along the lines of Elise or Natalie. I'm not the run and fight type. More likely, I would have cried and been in shock and been happy that she's alive. Both potential punishments are overkill, but even this lessor punishment is entirely over the top and unfair. That said, there was nothing else that Maxon could do.

Of course. But it would have been more like a hysterically-screaming-and-crying-in-shock sort of situation. I would have loved to jump into the book and fight through crowds to protect her though I'm not sure if that would have happened in real life.

I will,of course.Let's say,depending the situation,they're just in love.They've anything but wrong,Marlee haven't married to the prince,no way to say that she's the country's property.Not just that,they have no right to canned anyone because they just rhink Marlee and Carter betrayed the royal family,A true King and Prince will have mercy,but then I just see violence in King Clarkson.He should have mercy and forgiveness,not cruel and ruth!!He was just a man-version of Celeste to me,nothing but violence,maybe worse than Celeste!For my opinion,if it's you who are in the situation,you didn't go and try to save them or even after the thing,you didn't comfort and heal them,you're not just coward,but heartless,not just heartless but nothing!

yes I would totally save marlee no one deserves to be treated that way, no matter the crime. I would especially try to save her if she was my best friend.

Her name is MARLEE not Marty or Martee

Of course!

I hate to say it I dont think I could have done what America did...I wish I could, say I would try to save her but i think I'd be frozen in fear, coving my eyes while I peir through my fingers because it would be painful to watch, i wouldnt be about to stop myself. all while crying hard. I'd be thinking about how I should do something but not know what to do....

I definitely would have. Even if it scared me, standing up to stop it and all, I would have tried. Especially in America's situation since Marlee is her best friend.

I would have done everything I could to save her. I would rather do that than watch her get caned

i would have done exactly what america did

Of Course!!!

SPOILER ALERT!!!!!!11!1!!

YES!! I would not EVER want 2 get canned!

depending on the situation - yes of course i would. i personally don't think that violence is the way to punish someone - especially given the circumstances of how life is. But...in that situation, i can understand why more wasn't done. it's hard when you don't have all the pieces to the puzzle - i think that it was painful to read, but i get why things happened as they did.
