Part 1- 1B
Prejudice gets in the way of truth. Society has kind of set up our social class to have stereotyping a norm. Most people then judge people based off of the stereotype, even though every person is their own human beings and almost no one fits this social norm set by society. Stereotyping, racism, sexism, and prejudice are some of my pet peeves. If you don't like someone because of their personality, that is fine, but don't dislike someone because their a person that lives in a nice house. You don't know their story and therefore, you shouldn't dislike someone based on prejudice set by society.

This is so true! This totally relates to what Juror 10 said about the defendant. Juror 10 is prejudice against anyone who comes from the slums; he thinks that these people are always getting drunk and are constantly up to mischief; This is just a stereotype. Juror 4 tells him to not say another word about the subject of people from the slums, yet Juror 10 still insists that all people from the slums are bad people.
