the demise of common courtesies

Charles Fisher is against the use of cell phones because he believe they are a tool to enslave and control people, and turn them into impolite beings. this is what he feels lead too the demise of the common social courtesies.

 I strongly disagree with Fishers thoughts on cell phones. Cell phones are not the cause for the demise of common courtesies; it’s the people that use them.

To start I am not saying that Fisher is wrong merely; that he is overlooking the human contribution to the demise of courtesies. It’s not like mobile phones are a alien race bent on destroying human culture, or a super smart sentinel out too take over the world. Their tools made by man to make our life easier. For instance I was out in downtown Sacramento enjoying the sites, when I realized I was completely lost, and at first I was scared like a dog that been abused for long that he is afraid of human contact. So I sat on the corner for quite some time dumbfounded till I remembered my phone had gps. I typed in my address and I was home.

secondly not all people are inconsiderate while on their phones, so what if some on is in the park on the phone they have the right to have a conversation were ever they like, and if some one is being impolite it not the mobile phone telling the person to rude, it may be the person is rude by nature, and is discourteous to every one weather on the phone or not .

so you see phones are not thee cause for peoples discourteous acts, its the new generation perception on polite behavior that is the cause for the demise of the common social courtesies.

tan's purpose

Amy tan’s purpose for writing this essay was to illustrate the importance’s of culture and the pride you should take in it. After looking back on tan’s experience she learned to be proud of who she is, and the love her mom had for her. I personally understand tan’s purpose because I’ve had a similar experience.

It was a hot September day in Miami, Florida my family and I just move to the city, and I was bored. I had decided to go outside to get some air, but to my surprise there were a bunch of kids   on the porch next door. I thought were going to be cool but I was wrong. They started making fun of me call me all types of names I cried while they continued to make fun of me. All the while my mom oversaw what was happening. When all was said she came out side and sat next to me and told me not to be hurt by that people say, but be proud of whom I am. This experience is how I understand tan’s purpose for writing this essay.
