I said no because I love them so much and I don't want to abandon them but the next day there is no choice so we left them in the forest. I was really sad but there is no choice, but the next day they came back I was happy but my wife is not. So my wife planned to leave them again so we went to the woods deeper in the forest then we lit up fire for them. So we told them that we're going to cut wood then we left them again. Days passed and then my wife disappeared I didn't know where did shego. But after that Hansel and Gretel came back the next day I was happy I gave them a big hug. And we live happily ever after.

The Outcast of Poker Flat

If you had to blame someone or something for the outcasts' deaths, who/what would you blame and why?

Uncle Billy

Citizens of Poker Flat

Bad Luck

Outcasts

If I had to blame anyone or anything for the death of the outcasts themselves, I would just blame it on the bad luck. First of all, If everybody thinks it's uncle Billy for getting out and getting all the horses it's probably not his fault because anyways the next day the snow storm was like 20 feet already! Even if they had the horses, they would not be able to make it out, and probably Uncle Billy got stuck to some place and we didn't know what happened to him.

Second of all, If everybody thinks it's the citizens of Poker Flat's fault well it's not because they have been bad, the outcasts. They're prostitutes and bad people and even if they want to change and they really changed, they can't blame the citizens because they have a bad background and nobody would believe them that they're being good now. Everybody thinks they're bad and would never change. For example if you saw a killer and they said they changed would you believe them, help them, and trust them, NO!!! Who would trust them? even if they really changed then sorry, they've been bad and that's what they get.

Third of all, the last one, the outcasts themselves. It's not their fault because they even if they've been like that and they try to change, they wouldn't know the weather would be bad. They have their horses and everything they need so even if they get kick out they're alright. But uncle Billy betrayed them, but they're not sure what, if he just went to do something or try to get something. So it's not the outcasts' fault either.

The only thing left that could be blame is bad luck, they just didn't get lucky that time and it's just their fortune. The bad luck strikes them, they got everything to survive and what they need but it's just been really bad weather and condition. So I think the thing to blame is the bad luck.
