Message: [QUOTE="qdawgg, post: 5454699, member: 52"] While I don’t completely disagree with you. A documentary I show in one of my courses (this part is just one persons view and not the theme of the whole video) but made me think of criminals a little differently than I had before. Essentially he says, a person who steals is not just a thief, a person who has lied isn’t just a liar. We as people are much more than our worst actions. This made me question and change some of my views years ago. Maybe it does for someone else, in the very least maybe it gets people to at least think about the idea differently even if they end up back at the same place. Which is essentially what I tell my students with any topic. * I agree with this except in cases of rape, child abuse and murder - those actions I have no empathy or care about context. [/QUOTE]
