(SIP-A) one problem that technology has caused is that there is a lot of violence in their society. (STEWE-1) An example of there being lots of violence in their society is when Clarisse says “I’m afraid of children my own age. They kill each other . . . six of my friends have been shot in the last year alone. Ten of them died in car wrecks. I’m afraid of them and they don't like me because I'm afraid (27).” this quote shows how people just go out in the world and hurt and kill people just for fun. (STEWE-2) another example of people resorting to violence in Montag’s society is how Mildred tells Montag to kick a dog because he was sad. “He felt he wanted to cry, but nothing would happen to his eyes or his mouth. ‘If you see that dog outside,’ said Mildred ‘give him a kick for me (73).’” This shows how when Montag was sad Mildred told him to kick a dog.

(SIP-A) The people that don't use technology are not negatively affected because they can socialize with other people unlike people who have been affected by technology. (STEWE-1) Clarisse, Montag’s neighbor talks to montag and asks him questions because Clarisse is not affected by technology and she is not being distracted by it. “‘ Do you mind if I ask? How long have you worked at being a fireman?’ Since I was twenty, ten years ago.’ ‘Do you ever read any of the books you burn?’ He laughed. ‘That's against the law!’ (5)” This quote shows how Clarisse is not being distracted by technology so she wants to get to know more people. People in Montag's society who have been negatively affected by technology wouldn't want to talk to people and get to know them, they would just want to use their technology. (STEWE-2) Another reason on how people who don’t use technology socialize with other people is when Montag finds the men at the train tracks and they talked to each other. “‘Listen,’ said Granger, taking his arm, and walking with him, holding aside the bushes to let him pass. ‘When I was a boy my grandfather died, and he was a sculptor. He was also a very kind man who had a lot of love to give in the world, and he helped clean up the slum in our town; and he made toys for us…’” this shows that people who don't abuse and get distracted by technology socialize. (SIP-B) When people in Montag’s
