Aniticipation/ Reaction Guide

Continue to elaborate on some of the prompts you responded to in class. Also, feel free to pose different questions for your peers to respond to. I have posted the statements below.

  • People who are poor should rely on their friends, family, or church for help—not the government
  • A true friend will tell you the truth, even when you don’t want to hear it.
  • The “n-word” is more offensive than other racial slurs because of the history of hate behind it.
  • Women today are more often treated by men as equals rather than objects.
  • States with the death penalty have lower murder rates.
  • The best place for justice to be determined is in a court of law.
  • Being rich is more important than having close friends.
  • Sometimes a person has to break the law to make sure justice is served.
  • Life today is more difficult than it was in the 1930’s.

  3. If someone is in the condition to where they need help from friends and family, it is ok to try and get help from the government as they have programs for that. But the people who do shouldn't completely rely on that. I know times are hard but oneway or another you can help yourseld to. Try to get a job or something so you won't be a total moocher lol

  4. Very honest response. I think that some people may take advantage of government assistance and they never try to look for a job because the are comfortable with sitting back and allowing the government to provide for their family.
