Relations between 451 and Modern day
There are many relationships between the book Fahrenheit 451 and modern day. One of the things that we discussed in our class was about the "scapegoat". In the end of the book when montag was getting chased by the mechanical hound and the hound failed to catch him, they used the guy walking across the street to kill using him as a scapegoat. I am not saying that our government would do this it could be in our families or friends, when we do something wrong who do we blame it on? This is one of the things that relates to real life, is there any others that people caught? If there is plz respond.
