First of all Brutus knew that his father had done so many immoral acts towards the society. His father sleeps with senator's wife. He knew that his father killed and impale prisoners without any mercy. He knew that his father was trying to gain full superior power and thus to stop this issue from getting worse was to kill his father.
Moreover, Brutus had no intention of seeking high power. This can be seen where he consider on the other senators in the Roman society. Due to Caesar's dictatorship, most of Roman senators had no grip of power thus he had to give way so that an Roman power can be given equally among these senators.
Furthermore, even if Brutus didn't killed his father and took over the throne, he fear that he will be a tyrant just like his father because of the power and superiority he possess. Thus his feebleness thought lead to his noble motives that was to murder his own father.
In conclusion the killings of Julius Caesar by Brutus is a noble motive. However Brutus's noble motives leads to conspiracy and it opens a gateway for many greedy and cunning Roman senators to take over Julius Caesar's throne and thus leads to civil war among the Romans and Brutus own death.

Two wrongs make a right, but still murdering cannot be called as a noble motive.
ReplyDeletei agree with you martin...good explanation...brutus take the right action to killed his father...
ReplyDeletebecause of Brutus self pity towards the Romans fate, he killed Caesar.
ReplyDeleteno-in-between
if Brutus didnt kill Caesar, caesar would turn to horrible tyrant
slippery slope
there's no guaranteed that Caesar would turn to tyrant if he become ambitious man
my conclusion towards this is that every action have the consequences but we have to make wise decision, right?
Yes its true.
DeleteBrutus had no choice instead of killing Caesar because he love Romans more than Caesar.
ReplyDeleteStupid Brutus! The only noble character here are Julius Caesar.
ReplyDeleteYes...stupid Brutus!! He only had used by Cassius. Brutus love Roman? It just his reason to eliminate Caesar. If he really love Romans, there have another way to show off. No need to kill Caesar. Brutus is a immature person.
ReplyDeletei do agree with lia.. although caesar is very cruel, brutus cannot simply kill him. he's his adopted father and he should know that caesar loves him so much.
ReplyDeletein what law we have a license to kill our own father no matter how bad he is.. think first before talk!
ReplyDeleteBe emphatic on the situation regarding critical thinking and avoid emotional acts in decision making. Tq
Deletei am agree with you because Caesar was not a good leader for rome. he has a really bad attitude and do not have all the excellent qualifications to be a good leader
ReplyDeletefor addition, for me Brutus is noble person,why i said he is noble because before he wants to kill his father, he think so much it is the right decision to killed his father...but he think of his country....for future of the Rome...this is the hard decision for him but he must do it because he doesnt want to see the suffer in Rome anymore...it is my oponion...tq...
ReplyDeletei totally agree with you! because Caesar is very cruel and can't be a good leader, Brutus did a good job by killing him and he had a very noble motive because of that :)
