Saving Chris

Is it really Gallien's job to save Chris. As they were driving into the woods Gallien tried many times to give Chris things and even offered to take him to town and buy him supplies so that he would have been better outfitted for the job. Chris just didn't seem to grasp the serious nature of the situation he we walking into. Also would calling the cops have done anything? This seems like a legitimate question, he was in a public park and had the right to be there. Could they have arrested him? I don't think so, maybe detained him for 24 hours but he would have found a way back. He was determined to get into the wilderness and neither Gallien or the police would stop him. Furthermore, why should Gallien stop him, he has know the kid for a few hours, he has no emotional investment in Chris. I would bet that within the day he had forgotten about Chris and didn't remember him untill he found out that he had died months later.

Introduction



Hello group A, my name is Harrison Jewell, I am looking forward to doing this blog project with all of you. A little bit about me, I am from Edmonds, Wa. It is a smallish town about 30 mins north of Seattle. I am really enjoying my time here at Washington State, I live off campus with my dog Raynor, he is a Norwegian Elk hound. I am not a particularly great writer, however I do enjoy it, and with any luck this class will help me become a more well rounded writer. I really like going out to the sporting events on campus, you can find me at all the basketball home games, and here is to hoping that our football team turns around next year, GO COUGS. I am here at WSU to learn and become a more well rounded man, I love the college experience and everything that it has had to offer me so far.
