Don't Be Such a Punk!!!
There were thousands upon thousands of prisoners in the different concentration camps during the Holocaust. Yet, there were no large scale revolts that occurred. Many question arise because of this. Were the prisoners outnumbered by the guards? Why would they just go into these camps without a fight? Many of you have made the comment, "That wouldn't have happened to me because I would fight back or rebel!" There are people who feel that the Jews shouldn't accepted their fate so easily. Well now you get to add your opinion in the mix. Do you feel that the prisoners handled this situation wrong? Do you feel the people in Night should have rebelled more? Why do you feel the way you do? What could the prisoners have possibly done to prevent their deaths while in the camps? What possible reason could you think of as to why more people did not revolt?
