Camp Meeting
When we reached the camps meeting, it was a really great sight of everyone gathered for festivities. Everyone just having fun and worry free, like one big family enjoying a day. Kind of made me think when i went to kankakee fair as a kid. where everyone was just enjoying the warm summer day with food, fun, and lots of awesome rides. But it ended kind of badly at the camp meeting. King and duke conned some good people out of their money and then took of before anyone could do anything. Leaving the fun and festivities in a grim event.
Bogg's Shooting.
After that we went to this odd town where a man gets shot! To start from arrival, we see a drunkard stumbling through out the streets yellin for some guy. Now parently the town folk didn't mind it much cause he was a harmless guy and this was most the entertainment they got. But apparently the man he was yelling for wasn't as nice. He warned the man to quit his hollering before he shut him up for good. Well the drunk wouldn't quit till he finally shot him dead! After that the shooter goes home without a care. But the townsfolk were real mad. They started a mob to go after the shooter talking about lynching and killing. But they didn't have the balls to follow through, as seen when the shooter hollered it at em. This reminds me of when growing up, I always had kids trying to use numbers to bully me. But me and my friends called them out for the cowards they were and after that they didn't give no more problems to us much then name callin. All and all, strength may be in numbers if you can follow through with what you say.
