As we know killing someone is never justified no matter what the circumstances are. The reason other towns were getting away with this is because it's not right and totally barbaric- Gavin Bradley

The lottery is a collective act of murder because the whole town killed Tessie just because she won the lottery. This story relates back to the LEQ because Tessie spoke up about the lottery's consequences. During this time, it was unusual for a woman to do that because they were not considered as important as the men of the town.

Yes the lottery is a collective act of murder (the people who live there seem to be brain washed). No, it is not morally justified because it is loss of live just for good harvest). At this time, this practice was acceptable even though it has such negative connotations whereas in today's society, this is just brainwashed murder.

The lottery is a collective act of murder since everyone chooses to stone the person who is chosen. It is not morally justified as there is no real reason to kill someone. This relates to the UEQ as we see at this big moment in the towns history, someone loses life which is essentially the ultimate freedom. -Jacob Owen

The lottery is not justified because in reality, human sacrifice and murder doesn't cause anything other than death. It relates back to our UEQ because a lot of the time human sacrifices where weaker people that are oppresse by others. This is the same situation we see many others face and try to free themselves of

The lottery is a collective act of murder because everyone is perfectly fine about killing someone they know just because of a tradition.  This relates back to UEQ because it shows that history has changed and while some towns have stopped doing it, others haven't, and continue to kill someone despite them not wanting to die.

The lottery was a collective act of murder since the winner was killed in some way, such as Tessie dying due to a rock being thrown by her head by her son. Tradition isn't sufficient justification for such actions.

Yes. Since the text was a lot, the group work made it easier to analyse and understand what was going on. - Karen Alabi

I believe if the entire town is in on it it is justified legally. However I feel that the idea of murdering someone like that and at random is not morally right. The town has been too caught up in their traditions they failed to realize they should not be doing that.- Sam Anderson

The film adaptions is a bit more dramatic than the story, which makes sense because its easier to grasp in a film - Karen Alabi

The lottery is definitely a collective act of murder. Tradition is not sufficient justification for such actions, because murder shouldn't be the first thing people turn to to make something happen. This relates back to our UEQ because during the passage, it was snuck in that some places are getting rid of the lottery and "freeing" themselves from it, but the older people are seeing it as some stupid idea that young people came up with, so we get the idea of how people react to new ideas of freedom throughout generations. - Jordan Tierney

The story uses careful word choice and descriptions to set the mood. This is paired with reader interpretation. The film however, uses visual facial features and audio to make the viewer feel a certain way. The format changes how a person sees things as the film is more discrete while the story is more mysterious and shocking at the end. -Jacob Owen

I think on its own the film adaptation is a little weaker than the text, as the twist at the end isn't as impact due to the drab mood the film sets up for it. However, it does add a new perspective and layer of context after already reading the story, so they go well together - Dylan

The film adaption includes more emotions since the people are acting it out. The written story seems more dull and not as influential as the movie, which made my understanding of the story become more sturdy and known of the actual emotions and surrounding. Sydney

It is a collective act of murder, where people are discouraged against questioning it. This relates to our UEQ, because some townspeople realize that the lottery is unjust but cannot speak up against it, because there is such a large group of people that blindly support it because they fear the consequences of speaking against it.
-Drew

I would say the lottery is a collective act of murder. I don't think it's justified because in the beginning the the story, it was made known that other towns are getting rid of it. Towards the end, when Tessie was ebign stoned, there was a comment about the harvest in June beign one of the reasons they do the lotter. With that beign said, I though the lottery was done because they don't have enough harvest for everyone and overpopulation would limit the harvest. But if overpopulation is the problem,then there are other ways to limit it instead of stoning people (which in my opinion is really outdated. This does relate to the UEQ because in order for the townspeople to gain "freedom", the lottery had to take place where someone was going to die. However, since time was progressing, other towns changed their methods and stopped running the lottery. - Karen Alabi

The film is different to the story because they added a few changes to it.  Some of the things such as only the male in the family getting the ticket at first and the condition t of the box has changed, which somewhat gets rid of the anxiety.  The atmosphere of the story and the ending all stay the same, and there is a lot of fear and stress kept in the story.  The film makes the scene darker which influences how I feel about it, but the description in the text give me more traditional world building.
Stacy Robinson

The lottery is a collective act of murder, and it is not morally justified because an innocent person dies each year because of this tradition. This relates back to our UEQ because it shows how throughout history, people have followed the most absurd and bizarre traditions, and refused to let it go no matter how morally wrong it might be, depriving people of their freedom and right to live a long and happy life. This has changed a lot today, implying how our struggle for freedom has changed over time.

While they cover the same story, they are able to build suspense and shift the setting in different ways, the movie through sound and visual mediums while the written version only through words. I think the movie did a good job with carrying the story over into a film version, so it wasn't as lost as it is with many other film adaptations, and they managed to convey the basic meaning in a different way. I think I always get more out of a well-written story than I do it's movie, and it was a bit easier to get more understanding of the tradition in the written version, but the movie may work better for some people.

I think that it is a collective act of murder because they are killing someone for their own gain. This relates back to our UEQ because in the passage it was mentioned that other town are getting rid of the lottery but the people in this town are more older and do not want to get rid of it.  The newer towns are showing the type of freedom where they are growing past the lottery.

The written story was more detailed and the element of foreshadowing was achieved through the description of people's actions and words. However, in the movie, the music foreshadowed the dark ending to the story. There were also some discrepancies between the movie and the written story, but the change of format does not really influence my understanding because I understand the overall general concept of the story.
