The section I read this cycle goes into the relationship Cameron has with his best friend Len. Besides the fact that they both love to shoot Cameron and Len never seemed to have the same interest as Cameron likes physical activity and Len doesn't like to engage in anything physical. According to Cameron they just "got along" The relationship doesn’t seem to be really strong as a normal best friend's relationship would be. The reason Len liked him though was because Cameron didn’t game on him. Len's other friends however are racist because at the shooting range they will always shoot at other black people. This never seemed to bother Cameron because Len would just laugh it off and Cameron would do the same. I don’t understand how Cameron has no bad feelings towards this.
In this portion of the reading there weren’t any literary devices used but I noticed that it seems that Cameron is afraid of Len. When Cameron answers questions about Len he never says anything bad about him as if Len makes him hide all the stuff that goes on in their adventures.
This section of the reading continues to develop the motive for the shooting at the school. With Len being somewhat of a "racist" this leads me to think that he shot a black kid because of the way he was raised. At the shooting range all of the elders are always shooting at people such as Martin Luther King. It seems to me that Len was brought up this way and he has become completely brainwashed.
