2. What is any article surprised you? Why?
3. Are incidents related to class, race, gender, and sexual preference increasing, decreasing, or staying about the same? Why?
4. Are the national articles different in scope than the local? How?
5. On a local level, can you see these issues with friends? How?
6. On a local level, can you see these issues with family? How?
