Many Suffragettes
were arrested for causing violence and vandalized many places. We went to
prison happily because we thought this is one of processes for achieve our goal.
And we decided to go to the hunger strike and refused to eat in the prison. We
thought it was a perfect plan because if we go to the hunger strike and few
women dies, people will blame the government and they will be ashamed.
Government thought they can’t let the suffragettes die, so they used the method
which is forcing women in the prison to eat. But that method was usually used
for the mentally sick people and our companion in the prison were mostly
educated women. As a result it caused a public outcry. Until then, we thought
this game is our victory, but the government of came up with the Cat and Mouse Act
on 1913. The Cat and Mouse Act is the government let the women to have a hunger
strike and when women get weaker and weaker they let women free. And when
suffragettes are out of the prison they can’t work with us for a time until
they get their strength back and even when suffragettes dies out of the prison
it’s not the government’s fault. The governments are expecting us to get really
weak so we give up our protest but we are not going to until we get the right
to vote!
Hey this is a member of Indian Rebellion. Well, at least your government worried that suffragettes might die. There was nothing like that when India had rebellion against the Britain. We were busy to killing each other. I don’t think Hunger strike is no more useful tool to attack your government because they already found the way to against it.
답글삭제Cat and mouse act doesn’t kill you suffragettes directly but my Parliament passed the Frame Breaking Act that enabled people convicted of machine-breaking to be sentenced to death. As a further precaution, the government ordered 12,000 troops into the areas where the Luddites were active. Your governments are not hard on you as my government were. You have to take care of your body and have to find out the other act to against the Cat and mouse act because hunger strike won’t work anymore.
