atticus shoots Tim Johnson
This surprises Jem and scout
"Atticus was feeble:he was nearly 50" (lee 89)
He has no power but he has the power of being a crafty parent
he is a great reader because he is a lawyer
in the southern skeem he is not a man until he kills the dog
Atticus is weak in terms of the southern man code
Cecil Jacobs says that Atticus defends n****s
the rule of law is in conflict with the southern white mans code of honor
Other ways to stop the dog-Throw meat in a fenced area and close the gate to contain the dog
Atticus shot the dog because he thought it was a threat to his children, his priority is to protect his family
Francis is family and he says your dad is a n****r lover
(Scout dosn't know what it means)
Fracis has a new level of attack
Uncle Jack gets mad at scout for beating up Francis
Francis said that atticus is ruining the family
the average southern person in 1960 does not agree with what Atticus is doing
the change Uncle Jack has is the same change Harper Lee wants her audience to have
Francis kept going
