Overall Position
The view I am arguing for is: Humans are basically violent and savage
My argumentative claims are the reasons my overall position is true. They are
Claim 1: The boys on the island disregarded the rules
Claim 2: The boys turned into animals
Claim 3: The hunters, hunted very savagely
Evidence to back up my claims:
Evidence 1: Jack went against Ralph( the chief of the tribe) and broke off and decided he wasn't going to follow the rules and created his own tribe

Evidence 3: While hunting the pigs or anything really, the hunters had a chant. Which goes by "Kill the beast! Cut its throat! Spill its blood! Do him in!"
Reasoning: While hunting the hunters had a saying "Kill the Beast! Cut its throat! Spill its blood! Do him in!". A violent saying when they had been done killing something. For example with Simon, who was an existing member of the group has been violently killed by the hunters. While stabbing him with their sharp spheres they sang this chant. So even up to the point where they put a pig's head on a stick as a gift to the existing "beast".
