Lawanda just didn't want to change her stance on capital punishment, but Jack's argument did make her think twice about her position. However, instead of being persuaded, Lawanda dismissed the arguments by deeming Jack's facts unreliable. How has Lawanda responded to her own cognitive dissonance in this instance?
