what johnny means that every one is getting treated realy bad for example a bad world to johnny would be the socs and ther greasers fighting all the time, this is what he means.

When Pony makes that statement he means that the people will never suspect the socs to commit a crime and they always think that the greasers do the crime. they only do this because of the way they look. it says in the book that the socs were dressed up nice enough to go to the movies when they went to the rumble. That’s why the greasers get blamed for everything, because of the way they look.

When Pony says this statement he means that people always get judged. The greasers look tough and go around with their hair greased and people would say that they would do the stealing and mugging but the little pretty boy socs do most of the bad things. People think just because they are rich and have cool cars that they won't want to commit these crimes but they do for fun. In the real world there are lots of stereotypes.

When Pony asks what kind of world it is he means that people judge others by their appearence, without even getting to know them. Nobody would ever expect a Soc all dressed up and sharp to be boozed up and addicted to drinking.He means that it is a hateful world where people care for themselves, their rights, their well being.

22: When pony asks “what kind of a world it is” the comment he is making about how society judges people is how the strangers look at the greaser and think their hoods because their hair is greasy and they dress in old torn up clothes when some are good people. Then the strangers look at the socs and think they are good people because they drive mustangs, wear Mazda shirts and have clean, cut hair when really most socs are mean people.

When Johnny says that, what he means is that, people in the city he lives in gets judged for everything. They think that the greasers are the ones that does everything bad just by they way they look. Just beacause there hair is greasey and they were the same clothes all the time doesen't mean anything. Most of the time it is the socs that does it, and only for fun. They do it because they know that they won't get the blame. Because they are rich and inasent. The grreasers well get the blame.

When ponyboy says that, it means that everyone are judged. The 'greasers' are catagorized as greasers because where they live, what they look like and if their hair is greasy. The socs are called 'socs' because they look better, and have expensive cars, and cloths-they have more money.

When Pony asks what kind of a world it is, he means that everybody thinks that the greasers are all tuff and do all the jumping and that the socs are nice and rich and innocent but really the socs are doing the jumping and is causing all the trouble

When Ponyboy makes that statment, he means that everone is getting treated badly and the socs and the greasers are always getting into fights. The socs judge them; (the greasers) by what clothes they wear and what they look like and they always jump them and start fights. People think that greasers are mean and treat them horrible unlike the socs. Who are rich and high class.

Travis said...

He means what world is he in and by that he means the community is starting to become a slaughter because of the gang fights and all the jumping other gangs...

When Ponyboy makes the statement he means that to many people, the socs will never get in to trouble, like to kill someone or to break in a shop , everyone always thinks the the greaser are the ones always killing people and getting into fights and breaking in to shops. people only think this becuase the socs are in a higher living live, becuase they have cars and big houses and alot of money, adn greaser have old cars and hand-me-downs and they live in smaller houses.

When Ponyboy asks what kind of world it is, the comment that he says is that people are always getting judged, they say that the gresers go all of the mugging and the stealing. But really it is that Socs, them pretty boys that think they are so cool. They are the real ones that are really doing all of the bad things. People think that the greasors do it because their hair is really greasy and they looks tough. But people think that the socs dont do it because they look cool, and they are pretty and look clean.

I think ponyboy means that everyone gets judged on the way they look or the way they are from people who think they are better them the other people like the socs say that the greasers are all lazey living in like a traller park and all poor.

When Pony asks what kind of world it is that the socs never get in trouble for what they do and they will think it is the greasers.

Nick said...

when ponyboy asks what kind of world it is he means that the socs a=can do whatevery they want and just because the greasers are poor and different the cops will always think its the greasers.

Johnny wanted Ponyboy and the gang to win the rumble that night for him. He didn't want the greasers and the socs to fight all the time, he wanted peace!
