characters are vengeful and prejudice‚ feeding a vicious cycle that ends with all of the deaths in the play. Bigotry played a part in letting the friction between the two families flare up into war. The vendetta between the two families is so great that Tybalt ‚ when challenging Romeo‚ refused to listen to reason‚ leading to Mercutio’s death (3. 1. 111.). The one time anyone puts away their prejudice and simply hears out the other side is after Romeo and Juliet die (5. 3. 228). Prejudice leads to constant

Even then‚ I understood that Tybalt fought with many citizens in Verona and I was well aware that I needed to hold back my retort‚ Tybalt was always a thorn in my side. I continue to
