Robbie was hit three times and died on the front lawn” (119). Robbie’s shooting appeals to pathos as unfortunate and tragic. It is clear that the police did not know how to properly deal with a mentally ill person, and killing someone is definitely not the right decision. Earley also describes another situation in which a Vietnam War veteran named Beatty was shot 14 times for fleeing after waving a pocketknife in front of a manager at a cafeteria. Beatty had often thought he was still fighting the North Vietnamese and wasn’t mentally stable.…

Ok so here I am with my back against a door. Well I wouldn’t call it a door, it’s got like 10 holes in it. In hindsight this probably wasn’t the best place to go, seeing as it’s only got one door and it’s swarmed with Nazi Zombies outside. This’s just perfect I couldn’t have chosen a better place to die.…
When I was 15, I left my dad and my sister in Kansas and came to live with my grandparents here in Arizona for my mental health. My childhood was quite tragic.

I heard the door open softly and I looked up from my newspaper and I saw Ponyboy.…

They even made their own bombs that didn’t go off at the time of the shooting. They wanted to seek revenge against the bullies that made their school years miserable.
