“Death of an Innocent”

I personally think Chris McCandless did decease in a mindless manner. I do hold sympathy for him because he wasn’t anticipating to decease the manner he did and he didn’t dice on intent. I could understand why people in the transition thought otherwise of McCandless. but if they knew how he felt and why he did the things he did. I think people would understand him more.

I think McCandless died in a mindless manner because he didn’t have any thought that he would decease in the Denali National Park. He thought he was good prepared because he had lived off land for rather some clip now in his life and thought he had all the stuffs needed. He was an intelligent immature adult male and it was ever his dream to populate off the land in the Denali National Park. He thought he could lie with the few supplies he had. but turns out he couldn’t. and didn’t.

I think if people knew McCandless an knew what was traveling through his head. they wouldnt have thought of him as a rotter or person who wanted to prove the land and seek to populate in unliveable land. He was experienced and had traveled to many different parts of the universe. It was ever his dream to travel to that national park.
