"THE LOTTERY" SHORT STORY DISCUSSION
(the book discussion is above this discussion)


It's time for the two readings discussions!


Rules, Regulations, and Points:

This discussion will run much like the debates held in the main community. To earn points, be sure to heed the following:
-The comment is at least five sentences long.
-The comment stays on topic. No personal attacks or arguments will be tolerated.
-The comment is signed. If you accidentally forget to sign it, please delete the comment and repost it with your name and house in it. No name/house= no points.
-Remember to comment with your subject in the subject line. Like "Christine/Phantom," for example. That way, people can more readly track discussions.

Points will be awarded as follows:
-10 points for your first comment (this will only be awarded once. Not twice, once for each discussion)
-50 points to the top commenter, one in the novel and and one in the short story discussion.
-40 points for second, one for novel and one for short story discussion
-30 points for third, one for novel and one for short story discussion.



Discussions will end Friday, March 24th. This will give you all two full weeks for discussion. Don't hesitate to ask me any questions!

Ohhh... yeah we have the death penalty all over in the U.S. It's not even a debated topic like abortion. It's just widely accepted that most people who kill should be put to death. I'm pro-death penalty, but it's so hard to determine true guilt!

Yeah laws vary from state to state. The U.S. is organized such that (in theory) each state was its own country and government unto itself, able to make its own laws, but subject to an overall law of the greater country. I think a different way is probably less confusing and more efficient but the country is SO BIG! And everyone disagrees with one another like a hobby.

That all sounds very confusing if you ask me! I'm just glad that when I'm in London and I go and visit my boyfriend in Birmingham, that I have exactly the same chance fo being arrested in both places! :p

It is very confusing. Especially regarding traffic laws and apparently murder *lol*
I'm in Oregon, I get calls from people that still think it's like the Old West out here :P
Well.. we have had more than our share of school shootings so maybe... *smirk*
