Response to " Immigrants in Our Own Land"
I feel like i am optimistic immigrant in RHS. I feel that way because.
i feel like they are some teachers at school or just any staff in general
that make it hard for us to don good in school. But they are also a little bit
of people in the school campus that wants us to do good and do something good in life.
i feel like spending alot of time in school should make me feel like at home since
it is where i spent most of my time at, but it dosent.

beatty tells montag that he should be the one to burn his books instead of him.
Montag burns beatty
According to the story it seemed as beatty wanted to die because he couldnt live like that anymore. i think he fell a little out of place with the rest of the firemen because he knew stuff that they didnt
