The article written by
Ross Douthat talks about the rarity of crime, what should be considered crime,
and the chances of someone being a victim of such. He starts his article by
giving the reader the story of someone who was a recent victim of robbery, presenting
this person’s response after his recovery. He moved on to present a study of
the crime rate (from 1975 to 1984). Also, Douthat to use his own personal
experience of being robbed and others to support his idea that it is very
common to be a victim of crime.
The article is very
well written, containing good grammar and vocabulary that makes the readers
become more interested in reading it. Also, another element that grabs the
reader’s attention is the story of someone who has to do with the article’s
theme. By having a good proof to support his idea, from the Bureau of Justice
Statistics to be specific, Douthat made his article more credible. Though, I
believe that the dates of such study my cause some doubt in some readers.
