Daniel Lazare's writing (From the book Fields of Reading)

            
             Daniel Lazare does an exceptional job proving his point that the Second Amendment is outdated in his piece of writing "Your Constitution is Killing You." It is a controversial topic to begin with and he does a decent job of getting his ideas across to the reader. This is a topic that has been in much debate for years now and he wants to emphasize why something should be done about it. It is clear that he does a better job getting his point across than King does in his piece of writing. .
             Lazare starts off with an interesting introduction as to why the Second Amendment is a problem and should be changed. He mentions the events of Columbine which had an impact on many people (Lazare 704). It is a good example to use because nobody will ever forget the events that occurred that day. He also makes it a point to include statistics regarding guns. They aren't necessarily specific, detailed statistics, but they show how many guns there are in this country (Lazare 704). This is very effective in showing the reader how much of a problem guns are right from the start.
             The author makes a very strong point when he goes into the history of the Amendment. He uses specific dates and it makes the reader realize how long ago the Amendment was put into place. A lot of things have changed since then and he wants the reader to realize that. At the time that the Second Amendment was drafted, the circumstances were much different and that is a very effective argument. Lazare points out that people need to understand that at the time the Second Amendment was put into place, it was known as a transitional period. There was a new system of government and everything was changing. Because of this, not everything in the Constitution is necessarily going to be perfect (Lazare 710-711). The author wants you to realize all of this because the Constitution shouldn't be kept the same forever if it has flaws.
