Focus Groups Research Day 2

Starter

We've spent all this time talking about what laws/rules should govern our society.....but what about a city with NO LAWS??  

Let's watch the 10 minute video about Slab City that Sarah Vontersch shared with me and discuss our thoughts on the pros/cons of a lawless city:

• Would you ever want to live in a place like this?
• What would be the pros/cons of a lawless community? 
• Are laws immoral? Is it immoral for the government to create and enforce laws?
