Discretion is abused when a proper question about a proper area of inquiry is prohibited. Id. If the question is proper, an answer denied from the veniremembers prevents intelligent use of the peremptory challenges and harm is shown. Shipley, 790 S.W.2d at 609 (citing Allridge, 762 S.W.2d at 163). The denial of a proper question to the venire is always reversible error. Maddux v. State, 862 S.W.2d 590, 592 (Tex.Crim.App.1993). Thus, the propriety of the question asked by the appellant’s counsel is determinative. A question is proper if it seeks to discover a juror’s views on an issue applicable to the case. Shipley, 790 S.W.2d at 609. The Court of Criminal Appeals also has held questions seeking to elicit bias or prejudice from a prospective juror are proper. Maddux, 862 S.W.2d at 592 (<HOLDING>); see also Nunfio v. State, 808 S.W.2d 482,
