How does Mr. Underwood react to Tom Robinson's death?

In
,mentions that the death of Tom Robinson was
relatively insignificant throughout the town of
Maycomb. Many of the white
citizens felt that it was "typical" of Tom Robinson to try
to escape without
a plan. However, Mr. Underwood was bitter about the entire ordeal. As was

mentioned in the previous post, Mr. Underwood voiced his opinion in the editorial
section of his
paper The Maycomb Tribune. He felt that
it was simply a sin to kill
cripples, and likened Tom's death to the
senseless slaughter of songbirds. Mr. Underwood
understood that Tom was an
innocent man who was wrongly convicted and was disgusted by the fact
that Tom
was gunned down by prison guards. His comparison to the "senseless slaughter
of
songbirds" is significant because throughout the novel mockingbirds
represent innocent
individuals like Tom Robinson. This quote also alludes to
's rule that it is a sin to kill a
mockingbird, which essentially means it is
wrong to hurt innocent beings.
