On February 14, 2018, Nikolas Cruz shot and killed 17 people at his former school, Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School. Cruz fled the scene, but was later captured by police nearby. Looking back on the tragic incident, officials have discovered many warning signs that went unnoticed. Many students claimed that there had always been "something wrong" with Cruz. A few months ago, a social media user with the name Nikolas Cruz commented on a post saying, "I'm going to be a professional school shooter." These missed signals are becoming major controversies. School shootings, sadly, are becoming very common in the American society.
Elizabeth Chuck, the article's author, uses many pictures, videos, and statements from survivors in order to appeal to pathos. In one picture, a student and family members are seen crying at the scene. The cover image is of a student being wheeled away on a stretcher. These images make the reader more accurately feel what the victims felt that day. The tone of the article is very sorrowful. The author informs the audience of what happened, but it heartfelt towards the victims and anyone involved.
