Micall Johnson period 6 chapter 7

Disagree: Even though their society has taught them clones aren't the "normal" person, they still have a decision to make on how they treat him.  It's hard to pick if I disagree or agree with this because there is two sides to this question.  If you go against what you have been taught you feel like people will look down on you, but it's hard to stand up to people even if it's not right.  Overall, even if they were taught to treat clones like crap, no one should be treated that way.
