Well, I'd say I'm a creating mind. By looking at this blog, it's pretty obvious that I tend to look at things from a radical point of view. I tend to put a twist on the traditional view of things, but I have support that backs up my thinking. My thinking ususally doesn't seem logical because it is new to people, but it really is logical once people understand where I'm coming from. Either that, or they think I'm crazy and I'm okay with that.
In my blog, I definitely was able to see other points of view. In my poll, I saw many other views on the issue and realized why people feel the way they do on those issues. I also asked provocative questions in my poll by challenging people to really think about what the criminal justice system was and if that system was fair and just. This actually caused me to have to think about my topic and do more research on the issue. Lastly, I generated a hypothesis. A speculated, through my research and the poll that I did, that the reason people feel the way they do about the crminal justice system has to do with their personal experience with the criminal justice system. I believe that this is a very solid idea that is quite reasonable.
The thing that I learned from my blog was how truly sensitive the issue of the criminal justice system is. Many people have had extremely impactful experiences that have to do with the criminal justice system, and my views on the issue have come across as offensive to many people. Though I feel that I have been very fair in the blogging, people are so personally effected, that their emotions get in the way of their logical thinking.
In all, I learned a lot in this blog and will continue to do research on this topic that I really feel will be an ongoing asrgument that people will be extremely passionate about on both sides.

Quote from "Pink Sheet" states "I tend to look at things from a radical point of view. I tend to put a twist on the traditional view of things, but I have support that backs up my thinking" which really shows your creative way of looking at situations. I agree - you are radical but with a twist on the traditional...which makes you sound sane in an argument as well as persuasive.
