<span>When Johnny passed away from his serious injuries, Dally lost control and robbed a store. He really wasn't sure if he wanted to take it that far, but he realized that he had lost the only person he loved. After he robbed the store, the police were immediately after him. He called up the gang to come witness his death. Once the police caught up to him in the park, he pulled out his unloaded gun and pretended to shoot at the police, as a reaction the police immediately fired at Dallas Winston, shooting him dead to the ground, with his gang by his side.</span>
Answer: 1) What Goldsmith means, is that Death, is something all humans experience. Our mortality makes death inevitable and inescapable. Making it a somewhat, permanent condition.
2) "Like sex. death both fascinates youth and makes their elders reticent" I agree with this statement. Youth, are driven by emotions and feeling, making them more fascinated and intrigued by intercourse. They are knew to this aspect of love and life. Elders, may become less amused, and more silent about the topic. Having known it's personal and not something to be shared openly. They keep it to themselves.
Hope this helps (^_^)
