Which of the following techniques does the writer use in order to try and achieve this aim

Calming Approach
Deferential Tone

Threats
Humour
Objectivity
Sir,
I was so shocked whilst reading your correspondent's report that I actually mounted the kerb and dropped my mobile
into the foot-well of my SUV. Ms Dearlove is clearly moonlighting from your employment as a member of the 'elf 'n'
safety" brigade, and I suggest that you investigate whether she is paying the correct tax!
The so-called benefits of Ms Dearlove's beloved 32 km/h zones are such obvious myths that she might as well have
advocated everyone riding to work on a unicorn for all the difference it would make. Not all of us are yummy mummies
who get up at 10 and do a bit of light typing while the nanny minds the children, before rounding off the day with a bite
to eat at Claridge's. Indeed, some of us live - and drive - in the real world, clearly a place Ms Dearlove rarely visits.
Yours faithfully,
Commander Mustard (R. N. Retd.)
