Bridget's feedback:

"This is a solid presentation with a good sense of narrative energy and engagement that keeps the reader's interest. You build each example up in a logical manner that makes good use of supporting detail, but I question how effective capping each discussion off with a rhetorical question ("Would it be a surprise then...?") is -- ultimately, I think you will need to plug the gap between motive for acting and precedence for undertaking such radical action. Another aspect that will strengthen persuasiveness will be incorporating your sources directly into the text, or at least a bibliography that can back up signal phrases like "Certain sources...".

At the level of mechanics, the writing shows good control of syntax, flow, and transitions. I do see a number of errors (e.g., "flea" should be "flee") or typos (like dropped words) that can disrupt the reading experience and chip away at ethos. A thorough proofread can address these."
