Questions

  • 1. Do you think that because the body was found in his car, David should automatically be arrested and considered dangerous or should we wait for more evidence and why ?
  • 2. Do you think that social media is currently playing a role in this, and that it's shaping our opinions on the matter. If yes, do you think it's good ?
  • 3. Do you believe in separating the artist and the art ? Why ?
  • 4. If you were in the jury of a public opinion, would you lean more towards "innocent until proven guilty" or "suspicious until cleared"? Why ?
