In the novel, Fahrenheit 451, these firemen that are for creating fires rather than eliminating them are against the usage of any books in any household. Their job is to get rid of any book that enters their sight and burn them to ashes, and then burn the ashes so that the book is nonexistent. They think books are made to change the way people think, act, and communicate. This is true, but for the better of the people; books bring you to another world, another point in time, another way of life. It is seen more as a cleansing resource rather than one that brings fear and harm to you. Just like books, texting is changing the way kids think, act, and communicate, and this is bringing danger into their lives when teens least expect it. By burning the books they thought they were creating safety for society. If we get rid of texting, that will create safety for our society as well.
