Today in class we finished the Socrates notes that included his death and his teachings. The way he died was through his actions during his teachings he broke two laws he did not believe in the gods that his city did and he encouraged youth to look at things differently than they were thought. In his trial he fought with the words I have done these things but it was my duty and job to make people think differently. He ended up being guilty and was sentenced to death but it was a very close vote. He also was given the chance to escape and he chose to not escape and drank the poison to kill him. That poison killed him over an hour it was painful and long but he drank it and killed himself.
