Agree or disagree: Monsieur le Marquis Evremond deserved to be assassinated for killing the child.

I believe that Evremond deserved to be killed for killing the child with his carriage. He showed no remorse at all about depriving the parents of their child. He saw the child as worth only a small amount of money and attempted to compensate the loss of a life with gold. He enjoyed watching the people almost become trampled as his carriage sped through town. Because he valued life like this, he did not deserve his own.
I believe that Marquis Evremond deserved to be assassinated for killing the child because of the lack of remorse he showed and the lack of respect for human life. He actually runs down the child so he goes out of his way to kill this peasant and for no reason other than he doesn't like the poor. Such a blatant disrespect for human life and for someone God created just like he created you would be sickening if it were true. I've always heard treat others as you'd want to be treated so why not treat Evremond with the lack of respect he showed the child and take his life away as well.
I agree because Evremond was so reckless and careless, he clearly didn't believe the peasents were even as human as he was. There were two main examples as to why Evremond thought he was so beyond the peasants. First, he was delighted to see them running and in danger. Next, as he threw coins to the father for such false pity, he was further proving he didn't value lives of others as much as his own. Like Mickey said, the Golden Rule can be applied here, and when Evremond refused to treat the peasents with dignity, he lost his own dignity.
I believe that Marquis Evremond deserved to be punished for running the child over in the carriage but I do not think that he should have been assasinated. First of all, I think that the greater punishment for Marquis would have been to sit and rot in prison because there he would have been forced to suffer the unhonorable fate of the common criminal. Secondly, even though Marquis showed no remorse for his action - he was actually pleased by them - he should not have been murdered here on earth but the judgment should have been left to God. His lack of value for life should have put him in a prison, not in a coffin.
