 Do you think Caesar's killers were justified in their actions?


I do not think Caesar's killers were justified in their actions because he did not do anything wrong or to try and hurt the Roman people he cared so much about. It was also unfair because when Caesar was killed he did not even get the chance to go to his trial. Caesar only meant to help his people, but because the senate did not like his ways, they acted against him. Caesar also had an unfair advantage when he was murdered because it was a group of men against one. These killers were not justified in their actions, Caesar was willing to go on trial and never had the chance. So therefore he was really assasinated for no reason because if he had gone on trial he probably would have been executed anyway. This murder was just to make sure that he did not survive. There was no reason for these killers to assasinate him because all he did was threaten their power, he could have easily brought his army against them. It was very wrong and unneeded in the killing of Caesar, just because he wanted to change Rome to benefit its people does not justify the murder's actions.
