Sequel
Finally, that little punk is dead! I got in my car to tell Hazel and George their son is dead. I went up to the big black door and knocked three times, after waiting for a minute someone finally came to the door. As Hazel answered the door, I asked if I could come in. I stepped inside the old house it smelt of mold. I need to get out of this house fast, so I better tell them soon. "George, Hazel i have some very sad news. Your son escaped from jail, took off all his handicaps, and he is now dead." They had no idea what to say, Hazel just stared crying and said how she finally remembers everything now. George's eyes slowly started to tear up and he looked so confused. I tried to comfort them as much as I could but nothing seemed to work. "Well I need to get back to business sorry again for your loss." I stood up out of my chair and walked to the door. Just as I got to the door I heard and loud fire and felt a a bullet go straight threw my heart. I was dead.

3. The Handicapper general but 500 pounds of weights on him, glasses that make him go blind, black caps to cover his perfect white teeth, and then later she shoots Harrison.
4. Harrison's parents don't really respond to what they have seen because they can't really remember what has happened because Georges handicaps and Hazel is average and doesn't remember.
5. The main conflict is person vs society. Harrison likes nothing about the government and thinks they are being treated wrong. The conflict is resolved by Harrison being shot. The resolution helps make the story successful because it tells us that we can't all be equal.
6) The conflict in this story is when Harrison gets shot.
7) Everyone in this society doesn't really have a personality because they are living under the rules to be equal. No one can think or knows how to do things because they are just an average person and have to stay average or the have handicaps.
8) Vonnegut is saying that everyone in this world should be equal. To show this he lets the average people stay the same, and makes advanced people wear handicaps. So, people who are prettier than others wear masks, ones who have the ability to think get ear pieces that go off every 20seconds, and people who are stronger than others have to wear weights. In my opinion it didn't make everyone equal be the ones who have to wear handicaps are practically being punished.
9) I think Harrison would be a better general because he would take all the handicaps off of everyone, he would then probably let people enjoy them selves and let them do what they want. People probably wouldn't know what to do at first but then they would realize what they can do. The ones who are just average would probably start have to gain a knowledge and learn what their strengths are.
