Another reason why the outsiders should not be ban in other places is because without the action and the story and how they do smoke it makes the story interesting and if the took that out it probably would not be such a good story.]]> 2020-11-10 18:10:29 UTC https://padlet.com/kmlopez179/cabmkuue60aq7rhx/wish/909831399 davids81 https://padlet.com/kmlopez179/cabmkuue60aq7rhx/wish/909832156 I disagree with banning "The Outsiders" in schools because it can teach a valuable lesson and it is remaining true to your identity, as seen by Ponyboy never giving his identity of a greaser up he didn't care what others thought of him as a greaser . It also can teach the lesson that its never too late to change because Ponyboy was doing really bad in school but got inspiration of his recent life events that was a tragedy.]]> 2020-11-10 18:10:37 UTC https://padlet.com/kmlopez179/cabmkuue60aq7rhx/wish/909832156 https://padlet.com/kmlopez179/cabmkuue60aq7rhx/wish/909833386 In my opinion i believe that The Outsiders shouldn't be banned because it can help teach an important lesson to the student about drugs and violence and its effects that it can cause. Also i think that things like this can make a story better in a way because it helps us understand why a character is the way they are and it can add action to a story line. ]]> 2020-11-10 18:10:51 UTC https://padlet.com/kmlopez179/cabmkuue60aq7rhx/wish/909833386 https://padlet.com/kmlopez179/cabmkuue60aq7rhx/wish/909833610 I don't agree with the fact that schools ban "The Outsider" because even though the book does have violence and drugs the kids reading it should be mature enough to understand what the book is about. The book also talks about really good life lessons and about relationships like even though Ponyboy was in a gang, the gang was like his family.]]> 2020-11-10 18:10:54 UTC https://padlet.com/kmlopez179/cabmkuue60aq7rhx/wish/909833610 https://padlet.com/kmlopez179/cabmkuue60aq7rhx/wish/909833882 i dont aggree what they shoud get kicked out from the school.

Also this book is showing some good life lessons like not to do alcohol and drugs' because it could mess you up. another reason it should not be banned because this is showing students not to get in trouble because there can be some negative affects. also the book is not just not focusing on drugs and alcohol because it shows you how to get through tough times]]> 2020-11-10 18:11:02 UTC https://padlet.com/kmlopez179/cabmkuue60aq7rhx/wish/909834320 https://padlet.com/kmlopez179/cabmkuue60aq7rhx/wish/909834396 2020-11-10 18:11:03 UTC https://padlet.com/kmlopez179/cabmkuue60aq7rhx/wish/909834396 https://padlet.com/kmlopez179/cabmkuue60aq7rhx/wish/909834499 i think that the outsiders should not be banned in other schools because  it can help u learn new stuff and the book can be usefull in some classes because it can help them see stuff in a diffrent perspective and it also depends on the type of kids that u are reading or teaching this book too]]> 2020-11-10 18:11:04 UTC https://padlet.com/kmlopez179/cabmkuue60aq7rhx/wish/909834499 https://padlet.com/kmlopez179/cabmkuue60aq7rhx/wish/909834850 i disagree because i think that depending on the age we are able to take that. for example us eight graders and that we read the book we were able to take that and we didn't do anything wrong. i also disagree because it also show a lot of bravery and having hope in each other for example when Johnny and pony risked there lives saving those kids from the church. also the outsiders are really interesting and making you want to read the book a lot its really fun to read.]]> 2020-11-10 18:11:07 UTC https://padlet.com/kmlopez179/cabmkuue60aq7rhx/wish/909834850 https://padlet.com/kmlopez179/cabmkuue60aq7rhx/wish/909835302 In my opinion, I disagree because we can be old enough to understand the bad things and we know what is bad and good. I also think that it should not be banned because the book is useful in English class, it shows many great things to annotate and can show the kids understanding. Even though there is many bad things that the character's do, I know that some people are worried of that but I'm sure that the older kids know that those things are wrong and they should not do them.]]> 2020-11-10 18:11:12 UTC https://padlet.com/kmlopez179/cabmkuue60aq7rhx/wish/909835302 https://padlet.com/kmlopez179/cabmkuue60aq7rhx/wish/909837229 I disagree cause it not just about gangs its also about friendship to I guess. also they don't also in the good they do too.]]> 2020-11-10 18:11:35 UTC https://padlet.com/kmlopez179/cabmkuue60aq7rhx/wish/909837229 https://padlet.com/kmlopez179/cabmkuue60aq7rhx/wish/909839089 They also shouldn’t ban it because we are old enough to understand what happens in the book 📚 ]]> 2020-11-10 18:11:55 UTC https://padlet.com/kmlopez179/cabmkuue60aq7rhx/wish/909839089 https://padlet.com/kmlopez179/cabmkuue60aq7rhx/wish/909839507 In my opinion the Outsiders shouldn't be banned in schools because although it is true that the book does have violence, I think that the readers can learn many lessons from this book. Another reason why I think that this book shouldn't be banned is because I feel that the way that the author portrayed the characters living in bad conditions, can make the reader hope for more in life/look for a better path in life. I think this book could also help people reflect on their actions, showing the result of not giving it your all in life when you had the opportunity.]]> 2020-11-10 18:12:00 UTC https://padlet.com/kmlopez179/cabmkuue60aq7rhx/wish/909839507 OwenC12 https://padlet.com/kmlopez179/cabmkuue60aq7rhx/wish/909842483 No, I don't believe that the Outsiders should be banned in schools. I believe it shouldn't be banned because this books main point is to be written in the perspective of Pony which lives in a place that isn't great, he's in a gang, and this is supposed to tell the story of the other side which is Pony's story. His story would show the world not to judge based on looks as this is shown in the book as Socs are the same as the greasers although since the greasers look like hoodlums and troublemakers .they are judged by their looks.]]> 2020-11-10 18:12:33 UTC https://padlet.com/kmlopez179/cabmkuue60aq7rhx/wish/909842483 https://padlet.com/kmlopez179/cabmkuue60aq7rhx/wish/909842609 I think that when it comes to the outsiders it really just depends on the person your teaching it to. There is also pros and cons and the con could be this could encourage middle schoolers like us to join gangs or to get in fights stuff like that, that are included in the book. But sometimes when a person can realize that they shouldn't do that but read the book and don't do those things they can get a life lesson out of it or just some education. It really just depends in my opinion.]]> 2020-11-10 18:12:34 UTC https://padlet.com/kmlopez179/cabmkuue60aq7rhx/wish/909842609 https://padlet.com/kmlopez179/cabmkuue60aq7rhx/wish/909844026 In my opinion I think we should and shouldn't be banned. The reason why it should be banned is because in many pages when the greasers smoked cigarettes when they were mad or sad, and that will show kids that when they are mad they have to smoke but that's not true because they can count to 10 and calm themselves. To add on the gangs always solved there problems with violence which can impact the person negatively. At the same time the book shouldn't be banned because the story has different morals that can probably teach us how to solve problems and it also shows us how people lived more poorly in the past and we have to be more grateful of what we have.]]> 2020-11-10 18:12:50 UTC https://padlet.com/kmlopez179/cabmkuue60aq7rhx/wish/909844026 https://padlet.com/kmlopez179/cabmkuue60aq7rhx/wish/909844184 In my opinion the outsider shouldn't be ban in schools because if your teaching it to older ages like in 8th grade it shouldn't be ban but in ages that are younger it should be ban. Also, I don't think it would make people join gangs because in the book three people died and they were part of a gang so people should really be scared of joining a gang because they might get hurt badly.]]> 2020-11-10 18:12:52 UTC https://padlet.com/kmlopez179/cabmkuue60aq7rhx/wish/909844184 denises5 https://padlet.com/kmlopez179/cabmkuue60aq7rhx/wish/909846248 i think they shouldn't ban the book because i feel like we are mature enough to take the information .
