Second Chances
An inmate in a concentration camp that becomes an assistant to his captors, helping the captors beat prisoners to make them work harder should be forgiven. I remember watching a video in History about the Holocaust. It showed all the awful things that Jews went through. If I were in a helpless situation like that and had the oppurtunity to stop being tortured, starved, and scared for my life everyday, I would. It's easy for an outsider to say they would rather die than help the people doing wrong, but when you're faced with life or death, you make less humane choices. Having to make a choice like that is hard and they deserve forgiveness because they'll be forced to live with that guilt for the rest of their lives. In my opinion, a person in this situation should be forgiven. I'm not saying it's right, but being put through a concentration camp can make even the nicest person do drastic things.
