What would you do if you killed someone like Jhonny did?
Would you run away or turn yourself in?

If I were Johnny and had just killed some one I would defidently run. If I did not run and turn myself in I would probly be convicted of 1st degree murder. I think that Johnny running was a good descision because his family does not care about him and he doesn't want to get in trouble.

If I was johnny i would have definitely run as far away as I could. If johnny wouldn't have ran he would have testified in court and most likely ending up going to jail. I belive it was a smart decision for johnny to run away.

If I were Johnny, I would have run away. Johnny would have been sent to jail if he testified. By running away, Johnny didn't really have anything to lose, since his family didn't care about him.

If I were Johnny and had killed someone I would definitely run away. Even if I did kill Bob in self defense, the police would always believe the Socs over some Greasers. Besides if they knew you were an accomplice with Dally they would be even more suspicious of you. There wouldn’t be a big downfall of me running away because I would notify the gang and my parents wouldn’t even care. I believe it was a good decision of Johnny to run away because he was a greaser and no matter what you did you would always find trouble.

If I were Johnny I would have run too. I would have done this because first I would have been scared and secondly if Johnny had not have ran he would not have become a hero and have the police go easy on him. Also this gave people like Cherry time to come out and say that it was self-defense and that Bob was drunk.

If I were Johnny, I would probably run and then turned myself in. I probably would feel really bad and guilty. If I were Johnny in the book, I would run because the Socs would be after me and I would be very frightened. Since the killing was in self- defense, I wouldn't get charged, so after running, I would turn myself in.

If i were Jhonny I would run away too. This is so because i would not want to be at the scene of the crime and get put in jail, the only thing I would do different would be to leave Ponyboy because he didnt kill anyone so he can not get charged with any crime.
