Hamlet's hesitation to kill Claudius was completely understandable. Fear never stopped him, he just was waiting for the right time to do it, especially since Claudius had the idea of repenting for his crime. He wanted to catch Claudius at the perfect time and tried to get him when he wasn't preparing to change for the better. Personally, I would not have the guts to kill someone, because that would put me and a murderer on the same level. Hamlet is right in one way, to think whether or not he should have kill him. Why, because he is giving it a closer look to look at the consequences and taking it step by step in order to make the death a successful one.If he would have went right away then the people would have thought that he was going for the throne. Hamlet knows what he is doing and I believe for sure he will kill Claudius slowly but surly. The decision between life and death is giving Hamlet second thought of whether he should proceed in order to complete his father revenge (death). Not to be cruel but I would love to see Claudius have a painful death.
