Halloween

So this was a blog due a long time ago I think not sure but we need these for the Pre-Face so I am making sure that mine are done. I think that people during the sixties dressed like so called hippies to make a fashion statement and to express themselves. I am not sure that they would be offended at people dressing up like them for Halloween yet I am not sure that they would agree with it as well. Dressing like that is what defined some people of that time and maybe it's a new fad that will come back. Who knows? The world is going to crap again and it's time for change.

Argument Paper Topic

So yeah I think we were either supposed to email you, which I did, or write our topic on this. Well my topic for my paper is going to be lowering the drinking age to 18. There are so many things and controversies surrounding this issue it seems a good one to tackle.

12 Angry Men

The deliberation in the movie 12 Angry Men is a very good description of what actually goes on in a real setting. It shows you how that in a serious situation, you really need to deliberate and think about what you are deciding. The thing that I like about juror number eight is how that even if he is not sure that the boy is guilty or not he does feel he has a reasonable doubt and that's what not guilty really means. As long as you have a reasonable doubt you can't vote guilty and I think that is what he is trying to convince the other people about. I really enjoy how he uses his architect skills to evaluate the situation and use his reasoning to determine if what the people testified is true. The old man who is great by the way also does the same thing by noticing the details of the witnesses. The arguments are effective because they appeal to the better nature of people and actually make them think about if he is guilty are not.
