Kacy agrees with Adam in the fact that the word citizenship has been "tainted" by the shooting of January 8th.
Adam stated that Governor LePage was right, maybe not his choice of words, but his reasoning behind them. Martin Luther King Jr. wouldn't have wanted black people to have special treatment because of him. He wanted them to be treated as equals.
Erica mentioned that we are used to "hearing what we want to hear", and she is glad to have someone who will speak his mind. She brings up a really good point when she says that "everyone is not going to agree with what everyone else says, does, or believes, and we should simply focus on our commonalities and try to preserve some peace.
Kristen believes that Governor LePage is an embarrassment to our society, and he should apologize for his statement.
