How do our personal experiences shape our views of others? Ourselves?
In this specific short story we had a lot of elements to answer this question, the barber for instance have witnessed what the man that came to his shop did to his allies, he have watched they being killed and mutilated therefore he could not have any simpathy for that man, on the other hand his job showed him that he should always be professional no matter what and never discriminate his clients. Deep down he also knew he was not a killer. The man that came to his shop also have had some important experiences and learnt to consider the rebels as being the villains in that situation, so he probably didn't think that what he was doing was wrong at all, but all his experience in chasing and killing people made him brave enough to go and face the barber that he knew from what he had heard around the town, could potentially kill him.

I really like the way you connected your response to the EQ question, and again to the short story. I like how you have connected both of these characters identities to each other. My praise iss that i like how you have done the connections!! My polish is that, you have spelt sympthy wrong,:P, also, i think you should add more evidence or quotes from the short story. Lastly is my ponder, which is, i wonder how your story relates to your life.
