http://www.nazi.org/
1. On what issue is Pitts taking a position, and what is his view? In what ways is the topic controversial (or not), and how might this affect the ways in which various readers might respond to the piece?
In paragraph 4 he is taking a position: "In all, I spent half an hour on nazi.org. It gave me a headache." The last sentence makes me clear about the position of the writer. Pitt explains that websites, T-shirts and other things with this kind of advertisement makes people think in wrong way.
I support his topic and his ideas. He convinces me to believe him and I ready take his position as mine.
2. In paragraph two, Pitts states that he "learned" a number of things from website. What do you think he means by his use of the word "learned", and why?
Pitt just was interested in things that he never read before. He read about this group and its ideas about society.
3. Writers are often encouraged to explore multiple views of an issue before taking a position. Why doesn't Pitts offer a detailed explanation about why he finds the nazi.org website "abhorrent"? What do you think about his choice?
Before Pitts called the nazi.org "abhorrent", he gives us so understandable example that explains his words. This examples showed another and, as for me, bigger and terrible side of this website. His choice is individual and I agree with it.
4. Where does Pitts quote from website in question, and why?
It's in paragraph 15. He clearly and strongly proves his position and condemns the ideology of group and people who want to become part of it.

PERSUASIVE WRITING
"Convince me!" is the reader's cry that lies behind all persuasive writing. Whether you are taking a position on an issue, persuading readers to take action, or proposing a solution to a vexing problem, you are arguing a point in order to persuade readers to accept your claims, with the result that change their own thinking and perhaps even their behavior and actions. In other words, even though each of these forms has a distinctive rhetorical emphasis, all three on foundational strategies for argumentation and persuasion: from making and supporting claims effectively to avoiding logical fallacies.
