The Ones Who Walk Away from Omelas
This story was really different and it really didn't make me feel that good. But it seemed like I recognized the storyline from something else, i just couldn't remember what that was. I thought the story was very interesting when it was giving examples of how great the people of the town were and how at peace they were. But once I read about the dark secret of the town my mood changed drastically. I really didn't expect something like that to happen especially since it was a small child that was the one that gets abused. The story had a really good twist to it I thought. I got a mixed feelings in the end because I enjoyed the story a lot but at the same time I couldn't accept the fact that there is this town that has an abused starved child beneath it.

I dont agree with you either. I belive that for them walking away its a start of a revolution. It doesnt say what happens after they leave so you can only think that maybe more will walk away. In your face son!
