Best positive post: if George had not killed him, Lennie would have ended up in a mental hospital or being tortured by Curley. Also, Lennie died happy, if he had been killed by Curley, he would not have died happy.
Best Negative post:
I think shooting Lennie was a terrible idea, because it made their problems vanish instead of facing them and working through them. George had the option to face the men and tell them that Lennie had mental disabilities that prevent him from knowing what he is doing at times.
We all agree that it was good for George to end Lennie's life because he did not want Curley to torture him. Curley stated "I'm gonna shoot refutes outa that bastard my self, even if I only got one hand. I'm gonna get 'im"( Steinbeck 98). It was very hard for George to kill Lennie, "the hand shook violently, but his face set and his hands steady" ( Steinbeck 106). George ended Lennie's life in order for him to die happy.
