Topic: Perception
I agree with Socrates' point of view. I have a specific way that I view different topics; whether it is positive or negative feelings. But if I understand why I feel that way and what brought me to feel that way than I am able to put those feelings aside to understand the truth behind a topic.
Handicap or Mentally Challenged Individuals: They don't really bother me. I don't care if they interact with others. A handicap or mentally challenged individual is just like everyone else; they just are a little bit different.
Alcoholics: They bother me. I don't drink because drinking has nothing but negative affects to it. In my eyes, people who drink a lot are angry, misunderstanding, and very pessimistic. They also often cause heartache to individuals who are close to them.
High School Dropouts: This is an idiot move in my eyes. To put forth all that effort to get through grade school and junior high and quit when you are so close to your goal is lazy, self-centered, and ignorant. Individuals that dropout have no morals or future -- at least not a bright or positive future.
The topic that would have the greatest possibility to distort my perception is the handicap or mentally challenged individuals. I think that topic would distort any ones perception. Your first impression of a handicap or mentally challenged individual is always a negative one because of their physical appearance. The best thing to do to prevent that is to put your impression of them aside and look at it from their point of view -- try to understand what they are going through. That will help you understand them a little bit more.

Fail. You only have 239 words according to Microsoft Word. I think you did an okay job at getting your point across. I especially like the "But if I understand why I feel that way and what brought me to feel that way than I am able to put those feelings aside to understand the truth behind a topic." part. So I give you props for that. Some of the words used in your post are spelled incorrectly and you do not have an original title.
pass, well organized paper, but I think he said that faunt like that that is unexceptable.
Fail. The first paragraph came across as confusing and you had a mispelled word. I felt that in your second paragraph you should have added reasons to support how the mentally challenged are alike or different from you. There were not enough sentences in your paragrahs. Finally, you did not have enough words. I would like to add that I did enjoy the last two paragraphs!
