When I was having dinner with my family on Thanksgiving at my aunts house, we started to discuss Christmas presents and Black Friday deals. Then, my cousin brought up the story about a man being trampled last year at a store on Black Friday. The way she described it made me feel sad and sympathize for those who have gotten hurt due to store crowds; she included the appeal of pathos in her story to help us understand the story more. Using the appeal of ethos, she told us about how she had experienced a lot of angry, crabby customers on Black Friday, because she works in the mall. Lastly, using the appeal of logos, she told us that if we wanted to avoid aggressive, angry shoppers, we should not go to the stores right when they open, because that is when people are most likely to act inappropriately.
