The more power
you’ve got
the more you’re able to do the right thing
which is whatever
you can get away with
and at that point in my life I had no power whatsoever,
I couldn’t
get away with anything
so I had to do the wrong thing
and tell the
truth.

Is Chappie right? Give and explain your answer in the comment box below.
I think Chappie isnt right because it doesnt matter if he has power or not he still couldve gotten away with it if he had enough confidence, but he also did the right thing and told the truth.
ReplyDelete#5 in a way chappie is right. He had a better life living with his mom and step dad. now hes sleeping on a bus. he used to go to school. now he doesn't. He used to do all good things. He used to be a better kid than he was before, now hes doing everything wrong.

ReplyDeleteI think chappie is trying to say he has no power so he couldn’t do the right thing and get away with it so instead chappie has done the wrong thing and and no needs to tell the truth.
i think he is right he is trying to save his and russ life becasue he is his best friend so i think chappie is doing the right thing trying to save his and russ s life
ReplyDeletei think he means its easier to do the right thing with power and money than it is to do it with no money or power i agree with chappie
ReplyDeleteChappie is right, because he doesn't have power anymore, he cant get away with anything. When he was living with his Mom he could get away with little things as long as he was good, and he had power then. So basically hes right. He doesn't have power, and he feels like he "needs" to do the wrong thing. So at the same time hes not fully correct, because he doesn't need to be bad.
ReplyDeletei think chappie is write because all he wants to do us save his friends life.
ReplyDeleteRight*
DeleteI think Chappie is right because he didn't get away with doing the right thing but he told the truth.
ReplyDeleteI think Chappie is right, because he saved his friends life. He was doing wrong hanging with the biker, and finally did something right by saving his friend, and getting them both away from the bikers.

chappie is right because he didnt get away doing the good thing but i think he told the truth
ReplyDeletei think that chappie is right because he saved his friends life and even though he was doing the wrong thing he still told the truth
ReplyDeleteI think Chappie has a point but depending who is reading what he says can be inturprited diffrerently. I he is saying since he does not live at home he cant get away what somethings he use to because he is not treated as a kid now because he is on his own. Along from him getting caught for stealing or anything he does is all on him not because he does not have the power. Everyone has the power to do or not do something or succeed or fail. Its the magic of our right to choice and the magic of trial and error.
ReplyDelete5) I think that Chappie was right because he saved his friends life and he knew that was wrong but in the end he ended up telling the truth.
ReplyDeletei think he was right becaues he saved a life
