The Cynical View of the World Suggests That There Is

question 13

Essay

The cynical view of the world suggests that there is a "we" and a "they" that divides people. It is juxtaposed to Muir's tragic perspective. What would be the consequences if police officers applied one set of rules to those they felt were good people and another set of rules to those they felt were bad people? How would we know which was which? Would we look at ethnic characteristics or religion or gender? What's wrong with this?
