Insulted!!

1. Kiss my codpiece thou warped half faced nut hook
I think it means kiss my private parts you perverted, ugly theif

2. Eat my knickers thou incestuous swag-bellied haggard
Eat my dirty undies you inbred big bellied hobo

3. My finger in thine eye thou reeky beef-witted miscreant
Poke you in the eye you stinky stupid hooligan

4. Trip on thy sword thou whoreson common-kissing ratsbane
I hope you fall on your sword you son of a floozy, slutty rat poison

5. Bathe thyself thou infectious plume plucked moldwarp
You need to wash you sickly, lowly, piece of junk

Comprehension Dr. King

1. There is a bunch of criticism and if he answered it all, he wouldn't get the more pressing things done.       
2. Maybe they think that it is unwise  because they were afraid of the consequences of trying to integrate society, untimely because of all the election and political activities going on.
3.
4. He believes that 'wait' is extremely similar to the word 'never' and that peoples' promises of justice haven't even happened yet. The black race has been waiting a long time for their rights and it is about time they got them.
5. "Any unjust law oris a human law that is not rooted in eternal law. Any law that uplifts human personality is just. Any law that degrades human personality is unjust."
6.

Jail Letters P.A.S.S.

1. He makes his audience clear so there would be no misinterpretations or to direct it to a certain group of people without misunderstanding. He let us know the setting in order to bring up why he is there and his concern of why he was sent there.
2. Maybe King did this to state that he meant no harm and was making his point with tact and peace. I think it is slightly ironic because these guys do not really want to give up the justice rightfully deserved to this group of people.
3. The way it is writen to seem like it appeals to a broader audience. It seems that he uses his arrest as a spring board in order to voice other opinions.
4. I think it is implied and the thesis would be kind of like 'we went throught he processes and you denied us so now we are taking non-agressive action that really isn't illegal'

1. He reaches out to the clergy men, it seems he tries to voice his response to the critism he recieves in the nicest most logical way possible
2. towards the center of his letter
3. he uses transitions like "Before closing..." and "In spite of..." "Let me take note of"
4. To use outside examples to support his opinions. He uses them because it is not only because of his race that he feels this way, other people feel this way as well (and they are white)
5. The same reason he uses the examples from number four i guess
7. King uses lighter terms like 'misunderstanding' he talks about love, beauty, and brotherhood. he also uses 'we' and kind of asks for acceptance. Dr. King may have succeded in doing that if racial prejudices were not so heavy as they were back then. The thick-headedness of the majority is also hard to crack.

Connections Inv vs. Ant

The funeral scene in "Invisible Man" was much the equivalent to Antony's speech about Caesar in several ways. Both the speeches got the crowd hyped up and ready to act in revenge upon the fallen "hero". They swayed the audience to be irrationally violent with their actions and made the death of the "hero" seem highly unjust and morbid.
They were different because I don't think TIM was trying to get the crowd all excited. He was just telling them information and let his emotions get the best of him. Antony, however, had a master plan behind his words (which some was false aka the inheritance). Antony also spoke like he knew Caesar personally but TIM couldn't tell them much about Clifton.
The two of the speeches had a great effect on the listeners (accidental or not) and i believe that TIM's was more profound while Antony's did not seem genuine at all.

1.       The major premise of Jefferson’s argument is that the king was not fulfilling the people’s needs and that he was not being fair towards the colonists. I think he established it quite well

2.       Jefferson made his document appear reasonable by not being hostile and stating his needs with tact and made his complaints seems quite peaceful. He offers to leave peacefully and he sounds as if he is speaking for the majority of the people.

3.       The text was intended to be directed to the King and those who support him loyally. However, the people that were more likely to accept Jefferson’s words were the people on his side (aka the colonists themselves who weren’t loyal to the King in the first place). They know how it is to be treated unfairly by foreign power and can relate to his words more

4.       I think he handled it quite well. He didn’t say it so it seemed like he was ready to attack or like he was looking for a fight. It was more like if you hit us we will fight for what we believe for what is right

5.       He addresses his brethren by saying that the have tried to compromise but they have not heard their opinions. They are basically being one-sided (siding with the king).  I guess he called them brethren because they are still a part of their culture in a way, they just want more fair treatment.

6.       “We hold these truths to be self-evident that all men are created equal…” sentence He puts it there to set the tone and list what every person is entitled to.

1.       It relies on mostly deductive reasoning because the way Jefferson broke it down within his declaration. (plus Mr. Urban said it in class) The list of complaints is deductive reasoning

2.       He uses transitions and his wording seems very mellow.

3.       Maybe Jefferson wanted to be specific and differentiate between all the specific grievances of the colonists

4.       He is kind of saying “so this is what we gonna do, if you aren’t willing to cut the ties we shall act on what we believe in” We is the people who signed the declaration and the people who support those men.

Modern Science

1. The headline's point is that the evidence provided from science has set people free of death row due to critical evidence that was once unavailable and that because of politics, a number of innocent people have been sentanced to death.
2. I think the picture is kind of morbid and it reminds me of a 'Saw' movie. The immage shows a more inhumane side of capital punishment and in relation to the text presents a more graphic picture of procecuting innocent people
3. I think it appeals primarily to emotions because the picture is disturbing, the way the text is worded seems to be aimed at the unfairnes of the capital punishment convictions. The article called it a plague, and had a personal paragraph about this guy named Ronald that sounded pretty emotional. It is also a little logical in saying that the evidence found helps prove people not guilty and calling the system that is deeply flawed
4. The ad says that Illinois capital ounishment is riddled with faulty evidence among with other off kilter factors. The points made about Ronald and Anthony show examples of how the unfairness took place. If there were another point of view within the article about how capital punishment may be an okay thing the article would seem less overly one sided and I would be able to buy into thier article more.

Journal Entry: I believe that your ad is very convincing. Capital Punishment is an extremely unjust thing when the person is innocent. I also think that precautions and more thorough investigations should be executed when dealing with a person's life. Your ad stated that the Illinois's system was "riddled with faulty evidence". Without faulty evidence and the advances in technology, we can prevent misleading evidence.
