Ponyboy and Johnnny make a tough decision after the incident in the park. If you were in their shoes, what would your reaction be, and would you choose to do the same thing they did
If I was in Ponyboy and Johnny I will be scare to turn myself in because I will be afriad that they will take me away from my family and I won't be able to hang out with my friends and I will not see my friends at all. I will be behind things in school. Then on the other hand I will turn myself in because I will have to do the right thing and I will have to pay time sooner or later. I will have guilty all the time for killing someone.

If were in the shoes of Ponyboy and Johnny I would Run away for some time with a relatives if they had some in the book. My reaction to killing Bob would yell and scream in fear like a girl.

If I were in Ponyboy and Johnny's shoes after the incident in the park I would feel very guilty. I would have turned myself in, and I wouldn't have ran away though. I felt that Johnny did the right thing in saving the kids lives in the burning church, even if it did cost him life. I feel bad for Ponyboy, for having to deal with the burden of having Johnny die, Dally die, and having to deal with the court maybe spilting them apart.
If I was in their shoes I would feel sad, depressed, and scared. I would have done the same thing that they did in the story because I would not have anything else to say or do to prove myself because everybody practically hates that gang.
