From the book, it says that its bad To Kill a Mockingbird because they do nothing but make beautiful music for the enjoyment of others. They don't hurt people, they aren't nuisances, they do nothing evil. They only make music (chirping) for others to enjoy. So to kill something like that, or eliminate a pure source of joy, is. in a sense, a sin, and something that is bad to do. There ya go. It can be applied not only to mockingbirds, but to all things of that nature. That's what Lee Harper was getting at when she wrote the book, basically. The mockingbird is a just a symbol of something like that. Hope that helps!!

Killing a mockingbird is considered bad because it is a symbol of innocence and beauty in the world. Just like how a mockingbird only brings joy with its songs, harming something so harmless and pure is seen as a violation of that innocence.

In Texas it is illegal to kill a mockingbird because it's the state bird.

In the novel To Kill a Mockingbird, it isn't illegal, but it is a sin, because the mockingbird is innocent and brings joy.
