Db 5 Draft

Q For your DB assignment this week I would like you to locate and read an argument related to your Major Project. After reading the argument carefully, review my Intro. to Argumentation post (DB#4). In your DB response, summarize the article by identifying the Topic, Purpose, Thesis, a couple of key points of Support, and at least one Criticism the author(s) anticipates. Spend some time critiquing/evaluating the source. Was it published by a reputable periodical, newspaper, institution, or organization? Did the tone of the article strike you as fair minded or was the author attempting to unfairly manipulate/persuade the audience? Finally, in your opinion, is the argument persuasive? Why or why not?

The topic I chose to write is about the animal experiment and the ways how PETA serves as a helping hand to prevent it. I chose to write on this topic to stand against the injustice meted towards the animals. I wrote about all the unfairness that we as a human being do towards the animals. The thesis is animals should not be used as a tool of experiment or in items of luxury. There has been a considerable amount of experiments and lab testing done in the U.S. alone, where the death of the animals accounted for about more than 10 billion.
