Pt. 2 #1B
Demonstrated in both the world and the play Twelve Angry Men, civility will encourage your opponents to keep listening to you. In the play, the Foreman as well as Juror 4 insist on being civilized, which in fact impacted the outcome of the defendant’s verdict. Just like today’s world, civility has gradually become an important element in the conformity between many people. Without having a sense of civility, many opinions and arguments would have no meaning simply because there are no opposing factors that could be offsetting. If no civility is imposed, then oblivion, in the presence of vulnerability, might transpire between a multitude of people, allowing no room for the overall advancement in today’s society.

I agree with your statement. In the play "Twelve Angry Men," the jurors did not like to listen to someone when they were yelling or being uncivilized. For example, when Juror 10 went on his rant nobody responded or replied, because of the manner he was acting in. Juror 8 was able to remain pretty calm throughout the entire play, so people tended to listen to him. Juror 3 was got very heated which made others less likely to take him seriously.
