Description
When he was a boy, he was poor and hungry. When he was a young man, he was still poor and still hungry. He learnt how to steal horses, he learnt how to fight, he learnt how to live - outside the law. Australia in the 1870s was a hard, wild place. Rich people had land, poor people didn't. So the rich got richer, and the poor stayed poor. Some say Ned Kelly was a bad man. Some say he was a good man but the law was bad. This is the true story of Australia's most famous outlaw.

This is true story happened in Australia. Ned Kelly chose a way to fight against the rotten police. This story is calm and hopeless. It makes us to think something.

There was a man called Ned Kelly.
He was so poor that he was always hungry.
Then he broke laws just to live many times.
I thought that he was a good boy in that he made his best to live with his family,but Ibelieve breaking laws are not permited evenif he was in such condition.

I think this is sad story. Honestly speaking, I don't like the police so much. Surely, I know the man who try to be a good policeman. But part of the policemen don't treat people fairly. I watched a scene that the policemen and the gangsters who get training at nursing home are fighting each other.
I think the police should treat people more fairly.

The gangsters tried to protect old people from violent riot police. I think this scene looks like the scene the Ned and the police fighting each other. I think the police should treat people more fairly.

I couldn't believe this whenI finish reading.
NedKelly was very poor.He worked hard, but his life wasn't become better. In 1874, his mother was put in prison.Then, he established the Kelly gang.
I think NED may fight for the poor, but his action must not to be allowed.
