In "The Black Cat", by Edgar Allan Poe, the narrator's senseless violence supports the theme that all people have a wicked side. The passage from the story that best shows this is D. "...hung it because I knew that it had loved me, and because I felt it had given me no reason of offence...". In this passage, the narrator states that he will hang the cat, but he has no reason to do it. The cat has loved him and has not harmed him in any way. So it is the wicked side of every human being that wants to hang the cat.
