Night: Section 2 and 3

In this section ellie and his family are transported to aswutiz. I dont get why the prisoners didn't fight back. Most of them knew that they were going to die. They could have probaly fought back and killed a few German guards. It would have been better than going to the furnace. Also, I don't understand why Ellie and his dad went to the line toward the furnaces, they said they were 18 and 40 years old.

I think that if some fought back it would do much.Maybe it would kill a few guards but what is that worth if your dead?You never know until you try though I guess.

I think that the only way fighting back would work is if you got everyone to fight back at the same time but it would be imposible to convince everyone to do it. I agree that it would be better than going into the furnace but it would still be death. Something like that though is all or nothing, if you have some people who don't go for it then you would fail.

Well, really if a few people rebel and actually succeed in killing at least one guard, then it might boost other people's morale. If all of Auschwitz rose up to fight the Nazis, then they might be able to do something. But honestly, how likely is that?
