The outsiders what is dally perspective of the world? how does he view others and his environment?
Svetach [21]

Answer:

Dally as experiences that seem to choose his path for him. He was in a gang in New York City before joining the Greasers. He is tough and able to deal with others due to him being so cold toward others, and he can be mean when needed.

Explanation:

The person inside of him believes that he never had a chance. He no longer has the desire to get better or to try again for another chance at life. He takes care of his boys even if it means he must break the law, or use his strength and will to take care of what the problem is.
