For and example in paragraph 4," It is also true that if you exercise that right and fulfill that responsibility in an ignorant, harsh, un-American manner, then people are entitled to call you bad citizens and fools. Even your own children are entitled to call you that." or is paragraph 7,"I read in the newspaper that your community is mystified by the outcry from all over the country about what you have done."
The purpose of the letter is to the Chairman what he needs to do allow ideas to spread instead of their own. Shown in paragraph 8 sentence 4,"If you are an American, you must allow all ideas to circulate freely in your community, not merely your own."]]> 2021-11-02 15:27:53 UTC https://padlet.com/jr655341_1/tvfoi25holv0zvda/wish/1862019054 jr655341_1 https://padlet.com/jr655341_1/tvfoi25holv0zvda/wish/1862019977 Pathos: Rat-like people, large, strong person, fifty-one years old, American
