United States justice system‚ we also fail to realize that every single juror counts. We often hear of jurors conforming‚ and switching their votes to the majority vote in hopes of going home‚ but this is not the case in “12 Angry Men”.

Protector of Chryse… Grant me this prayer: Let the Danaans pay for my tears with your arrows. Apollo heard his prayer and descended Olympus’ crags pulsing with fury‚ bow slung over one soldier‚ the arrows rattling in their case on his back as the angry god moved like night down the mountain.” (1‚ 45-50) Because Apollo valued prayers to him he sent arrows that rained down on the Greeks for nine days causing many of them to die from the plague.
