Killing Claudius

I agree with Hamlet's hesitation to kill Claudius. Not for the same reason as him, but because it is not good timing. Claudius was praying and killing him thenwould not be good. Also it would be better when CLaudius can see Hamlet try to kill him, to understand how hurt Hamlet is. The play has not showed for sure whether or not Claudius os realy guilty, but all the signals point to yes. But if he is not guilty and Hamlet killed him it would have been on Hamlet's conscience forever. Not only will it be on his conscience but people will also react against him for how he portrays himself being mad. I think it was a good decision to think about it.
