Denise Rico English II Honors 3 April 2013 Fahrenheit 451 Dialectical Journals “Come off it. It doesn’t like or dislike. It just ‘functions.’ It’s like a lesson in ballistics. It has a trajectory we decide on for it. It follows through. It targets itself‚ homes itself‚ and cuts off. It’s only copper wire‚ storage batteries‚ and electricity” (Bradbury 26) Irony: I thought it was ironic how Beatty mentioned that the mechanical hound just “functions” because that’s how the citizens
