C’mon, you agreed to stab him.
Man, he’s already been stabbed 22 times, he’s definitely dead now, there’s no point.
But you agreed!
Fine stabs there, see, I did it. He’s not really any deader than he was before though.
Alright, who’s next?
Rest of the senators: NOPE
Yea. The guy died. You don’t beat a dead horse or stab a dead Ceasar.
Roman senators: “We can’t even get bipartisan support for an assassination these days!”
I believe many of the stabs were from after he was already dead as well
As a consequence of logistics, or out of squeamishness? Either way, it’s largely symbolic.
Squeamishness, I think. They wanted to say they stabbed him but were scared to do it first
Bonus Points: In the confusion, some of the assassinating Senators stabbed each other by accident.
I was gonna say, it may have been more of a logistics issue. I feel like once you get 5 or more people around someone, stabbing the shit out of them, it’s probably hard to butt into the circle without catching a blade yourself, and I highly doubt they lined up single file.
If action movies have taught me anything, it’s that a huge group vs one protagonist means all the baddies take turns kinda dancing in place until it’s their time to stab.
how many stab wounds?
