In Maycomb County, there are lots of people that Scout encounters. Her brother is one of her biggest influences. He was a tough kid though, cause he broke his arm and he wasn't even self concious about it. Scout explains, "he could have cared less, long as he could pass and punt." It means he didn't care that he had a cast on his arm, and he didn't care if he looked stupid with it, as long as he could still play sports. Another person that Scout knows is Walter Cunningham. Walter is from a very poor farming family, the kids have to stay home and help work instead of getting an education. Walter once said, "Reason I can't pass the first grade, Mr. Finch, is i've had to stay over spring and help papa with the choppin'. It was hard for him to stay caught up in school when he had to help his dad, so he wasn't able to pass the first grade. The last person I'll tell you about is Miss Maudie. She is an older lady who konws what is going on in the town. She is smart because she has been around for a long time. She told Scout, "you know old Mr. Radley was a footwashing baptist?" She was trying to say that Mr. Radley used to be a good person, but he has changed a lot and is now a different person.

The last argument I had was with my mom. She always shares details of my personal life with her friends and i was explaining to her how that breaks a trust barrier. I used pathos in this area of my argument because i was telling her how it made me feel and asked her if she would feel the same if the rolls were reversed. It helped her to see it from my point of view and I know i got my point across because she left the room pissed and defeated.
Prompt #6--The difference between forming an opinion and becoming predjudice is assumption. When you form an opinion about something, you do so from experience. You learn things and analyze how you feel, that brings you to your opinion. People who are predjudice form and opinion once, then assume everything in that same stereotype is the same way. You could have one hispanic person rip you off. From this experience, your opinion about him would be that he is cheap and deceptive. This becomes predjudice when you assume every hispanic person is equally cheap and equally deceptive, without finding out for yourself.
Prompt #7-- a. have you ever had to stand up for something when you know it was not popular to do so?
b. give a historical example.
a. When I was with some of my friends, they wanted to just steal these testers at a cosmetic counter. i would have been so easy and atainable. I stood up and said I didnt think that would be honest. I asked them not to and they agreed with me. I was glad I stood up for what was right.
b. This isn't a completely historical event, because it happened less than ten years ago, but back when hurricane Andrew was about to strike, the president said it would be okay for the guard to step down from guarding the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. The guard refused to back down and in doing so was standing up for every man lost in the war.
