In her essay, "Get a knife and get a dog, but get rid of the gun" Molly Ivins controls the gun by expressing her belief that weapons should be banned . Evans declared her view clearly and strongly, but her overall discussion was ruined by her statement. It is not easy to judge whether Ivins' target audience is "progang" or "antigan". Then, if her goal is to persuade gun supporters to change their view, then she will not necessarily succeed; her goal is to build friendship among people who oppose the use of guns If she was, she would have worked better.
Especially in her article Evans' tone is dull, ironic and informal. This aspect of her writing may be beneficial to her as it makes her articles easier to read and reach. However, gun control when discussing murder and death, in particular, is not a simple topic and is considered inherently dangerous. For example, at the beginning of her article, Ivins briefly outlined the benefits of using the tool, that is, "improving health by using a gun instead of a knife." Evans uses humor to make his work fun, but it also helps to make her claim more unattractive. By getting rid of those who support the use of guns in this way, Ivin did not receive their respect. In fact, this approach may obviously listen to her view and reduce the likelihood of emphasizing her view, not to mention adopting her "Progang" audience. One of the main reasons Martin Luther King's "Birmingham Prison Letter" was very effective was that he talked with respect to the opposite audience. King even praised some of their ideas.
After a couple of Google searches and clicks, I tripped over the picture. I believe that this sentence shows that the true purpose of Evans' article is "strong satire". This makes sense because the most powerful aspect of her argument is to do so. The core of Evans's article contains a more powerful and effective attraction. In particular, she referred to the second amendment, filed counterarguments and potential weaknesses, then broke them. All of these strategies help to confirm her view.
In an endless argument about the right of the gun, "With the knife, getting the dog, getting rid of the gun," the author Molly Ivins uses humor as the main weapon to prove his own view I will. Through it, she understood all claims for more stringent gun control. It was her position and I shot down them with confidence with facts and confidence. Ivins started saying that her position is not that strict as saying, "I am not a gun, I am just a knife." It makes the reader laugh, so no one who opposes will not open his eyes. Subject In her next point, she also attacked the ancient gun control theory, the second amendment. She cited directly the constitutional statement that the right to carry weapons today includes the formation of a well-trained militia organization where most people will use small firearms. She continues this robust evidence model and carefully refutes the discussion of the entire article.
