In today's society many unfortunate events especially murders are kept "secret". In these cases the truth is afraid to be too overwhelming for people to know or think about. In some cases people can’t cope with a loss where as others can’t deal with what they have done or feel nothing at all. No matter what side a person is on the event is tried to be covered up. In Lord of The Flies, Piggy, Simon, and the pilot’s death were washed away into the sea and the boys tried to forget about Simon and Piggy where some didn't even care or realize it was wrong. Golding was trying to show that human nature is to just cover up the bad and move on. When we move on without punishment or remorse it leads to more death and destruction. Just as Jack and the Hunters were going to kill Ralph because they never felt remorse or received punishment.
