Hamlet's hesitation to kill Claudius

I agree with Hamlet's hesitation to kill Claudius. I think that if he were to carry out the deed, that he should take his time to contrive an effective plan instead of just going about it with a higher chance for mistake. If he were to get caught, his position in as a prince would be compromised. The public would completely turn against him. Murdering the king would probably result in his immediate execution (even though Claudius has planned Hamlet's death in England).
