interview paragraph

My question presented to my peers was that should kids under 18 be able to vote. And im pretty sure you can guess what the answers were from my friends everyone said yes some kids most kids like saffronia said that if we know whats going on we should have a say in what goes on in the world. Keyana says that "kids should be able to vote because were gonna be here longer than the adults making the dicisions."My point was made when i got the answer "Drastic times call for desperate measures" that changed my whole outlook on the question that was presented and thats what the kids thought should be done only because we know whats going on too its not fair that we have to live with it and not have a say in it. Heres how i see it if you mess up while were kids and we mess up when we are adults we know no happiness to lif at all so every vote count even if its that of a 13 year old child.

In the question of liberty and equality i would say Rainsford values equality over liberty. I say that for 3 reasons. One of those reasons are when he found out what the big game was on the island he was appauled at Zaroffs decision to hunt human beings. But in my choosing of equality over liberty I was a bit skeptical because here is what he said "Don't talk rot,Whitney,"said Rainsford. "You're a big game hunter, not a philosopher. Who cares how a Jaguar feels." And another reason was that when he was talking about the hunters and the huntees. That made me feel a littler it shakey' but he still showed his true colors in the end. When Zaroff said he wanted to hunt men he was shocked he didn't know how to react to such a terrible thing. So he just went along with it and agreed to be hunted and he actually won the battle. But the thing that made him all the more victorious to me was that he was fighting for a cause. So that why I know Rainsford values liberty over equality.
