In contrast, I think the Twelve Angry Men is a must-have material for getting started in debate. It is different from court debate, different from the collision of ideas, and more of an inspiration for thinking. At the beginning of each debate, I always emphasize that you should not be limited by the fixed thinking in your heart, break the alley thinking, and don't take it for granted that everyone feels this way and lacks arguments. ask, how? I always cite, for example, "How to prove that the sun rises from the east?" "Practice is the only criterion for testing truth. What is the only criterion for testing practice?" , unfortunately I only have two left. However, most of the new students are at a loss and do not know what to say, or "powerful" and can't get the essentials. Looking back, I still have to sigh that Twelve Angry Men is an excellent textbook for debate enlightenment. Twelve people in a room, not a brainstorm, but fortunately one person has "reasonable doubt", and the beginning of all doubts, the change from 1:11 to 12:0, requires the basics of a great debater. Qualities - skeptical spirit. Learning to question is the beginning of all debates.
But then again, I don't understand why so many doubts have to be discussed by the jurors. Could it be that they are also the low-level lawyers caused by the legal aid system? If the evidence is insufficient to dismiss the prosecution, it is better for the inspection agency to consider that the evidence is insufficient and send it back for supplementary investigation. The heaven is a kingdom, our rule of law cannot be avoided by a decaying and declining capitalist society~
Is this democracy? The so-called equal freedom, is equal debate and freedom to speak? No, I'm afraid it's the fearlessness of the skeptical spirit itself that is more like democracy. Without a judicial committee, all that is needed is the inviolability of the supreme rights of the twelve people.
