Peer edit Jon Perkins

1. Is there a clear point of view? (position)
Yes, the POV is clearly stated many tmes. And even in many ways and on many points
2. Does the Op-Ed state the problem and solution simply?
Yes both are stated. But not simply, its rather complex for an opinionated writing piece.
3. Does the piece address the counter arguments?
Yes it does, and demolishes them. Shows why the counter arguement is truely not one at all
4. Is the Op-Ed interesting?
Yes it is. What is not interesting about hate crimes?
5. Are the paragraphs organized logically?
yes, each starts with 1st 2nd and 3rd and have logical points in an orderly fashion
6. Does each paragraph develop an idea to support the thesis?
Somewhat. They also go on tangents about other things but its all for the greater good of the editorial.
7. Is the writing clear?
Yes. clear. to the point.
