Because Atticus was trying to defend Tom Robinson and protect the mob from causing harm to him. They even had to change him to another jail because of the people of Maycomb trying to get at him. (They weren't so much after Atticus as they were trying to get him out of the picture, in order to hurt Tom Robinson...)

I hope this helps a little :)

In "To Kill a Mockingbird", the alleged incident in the past that is cited as proof that Boo Radley is a violent person is when he stabbed his father with scissors. This incident contributes to the rumors and fear surrounding Boo in the neighborhood.

Atticus had made the jury have to sit down and actually think about the case instead of just saying black- white. White wins..... Atticus had made the jury have to sit down and actually think about the case instead of just saying black- white. White wins.....

In "To Kill a Mockingbird," the mockingbirds symbolize innocence and vulnerability. Characters like Tom Robinson and Boo Radley are considered mockingbirds because they are kind and harmless individuals who are unfairly targeted and harmed by others due to prejudice and misunderstanding.

"Mockingbirds" in this story are those people characterized by their innocence which is taken away by exposure to some (unnecessary) evil. Boo Radley most definitely fits this description.

Arthur "Boo" Radley is an enigma, purportedly once a bright young boy who, as the result of some past event, had been sequestered away and emotionally damaged by his domaneering father for most of his life. He grew to be a misunderstood recluse - though he never lost his kindness. Indeed, it was his humanity that ultimately brought him back out of the house to help and later save the lives of young Scout and Jem.

It is Boo's kindness without prejudice, what me know as "innocence," that makes him a mockingbird. In spite of everything, Boo gives with all his heart, just as Miss Maudie explains to scout that a "Mockingbird sings with all its heart." To injure him, as "to kill a mockingbird," would simply be a sin.
