Release : "‘I will take care of that, sir. I will take care of that, sir,’ Jonas mimicked in a cruel, sarcastic voice. ‘I will do whatever you like, sir. I will kill people, sir. Old people? Small newborn people? I’d be happy to kill them, sir."
(Lowry pp. 152-153). This is a strong example of how Jonas feels about the community after he sees the release of a twin. The sarcastic voice he uses to mimic the attendant shows that he understands, now, that the community blindly follows orders that may be ethically wrong. It also shows that he is disgusted by this fact.
