Visual Rhetoric

I FOUND THIS ON TIME'S CARTOON OF THE WEEK. IT IS BY CAM / OTTAWA CITIZEN / CAGLE CARTOONS. The clear message is how easy it is in the US to get ahold of guns. the cartoon implies that all one needs is proof of age, even if the do look slightly deranged. While the intended audience is the general public it is a political cartoon so i seems to be aimed at those political figures in charge of constructing policies and regulations on gun control. 








PS; THE INTERNET WAS WAY MORE FUN BEFORE IT BECAME HOMEWORK.....

  1. Becca,

    If this dude looks slightly deranged to you, I wonder what seriously deranged must be like! Great cartoon and good job thinking about it critically. mc
