Outsiders charater analysis

When one of the characters came into the story. (Johnny) He was the abandoned dog left on the rode. Basically he was found by the greasers. Johnny parents where alcoholic and didn't care what happens to Johnny. I feel really frustrated and disappointed that his parents didn't love him. Johnny sleeps on the lot outside for his own comfort from his parents. Johnny is caring, forgiving, quite, and stands up for people like Cherry. Johnny doesn't swear and uses his language appropriately. A horrifying backstory about Johnny is that this one gang the soc's. A teen named Bod, damaged Johnny in harmful ways that tears him up inside. He had three rings on his arm that Johnny won't forget. Now that Johnny remembers or sees him it hurt's him badly emotionally. But one evening, Ponyboy and Johnny where going to the park. But, got harassed by the soc's. Ponyboy was almost dying by drowning his head in the fountain by the soc's. Johnny decided he had no choice but to kill one the members. "I killed that boy..." He said. So Johnny's life hasn't been the most joyful life as some of ours. Johnny would never turn on anyone. But he had to save Ponyboy. Johnny didn't really had anything to follow. Except his gang the greasers. He follows them as a role model or motivates him. As I read through the end of the book I noticed that Johnny had saved the lives of children. Which shows he cares for one another and not himself in front of danger. But it didn't go well for Johnny. He got caught in the fire and ended up in the hospital. I felt somber when he lied there on the bed. He told Ponyboy that he didn't want to live anymore and the kids lives where more important than his. Later on, he died on the hospital bed. Johnny was an important character to the story that if it meant that if he wasn't there to save those kids.... They would of died. It also effected the other characters when Dally went rampaging and running around the hospital because of Johnny death. Later he killed himself. So Johnny was cared and loved from the gang and will not be in vain.
