G. I. Joe, A Great Role Model
More than a couple of years ago a new action figure was launched, named G. I. Joe. The toy was an instant success, children loved the new toy. Soon, children began to idolize and follow the actions of this toy. Children always look for someone or something to serve as a role model. There has a been a debate of whether or not G. I. Joe should be considered as one.
In movies (like G.I. Joe: Rise of cobra) Joe can be seen in many movie scenes doing stunts and doing good. He is the superhero in this movie. Kids try to model him because he is seen defeating the bad guys. Well G.I. Joe is really violent when he is defeating the bad guys. G.I. Joe (in his movies) tries to do anything to save people and prevent harm. In one part of the movie G.I. Joe is almost killed when he tries to save people. So he had to be a little violent to save the peoples lives. Joe could not just stand there and let himself get shot by the enemy. He had to do something and the only option was to beat them up with his hands or with his sword.

Joe. They try to get his muscle tone and his skills no matter what they have to do. There is a part in the beginning or sometimes at the end clearly stating to the kids saying “Kids do not try to do this at home. This movie was completed with professional stunt crews and careful planning.”. Steven said “kids tend to try what are in movies but movies make sure they get the message of ‘kids do not try this at home’ along with other things of copyrights” (Steven James). Joe is a good role model and he encourages kids to do right but he does not encourage the
Joe wants people to see what war does to you and how it isn’t as great as everyone says it is. Joe chose to go to war because he wanted to be this great human and he ended up paying the price by losing half his body and not being able to communicate with others.
Although Johnny Got His Gun and Shenandoah vary in how Joe and Sam realize they do not understand why they are fighting both recognize they are not personally invested in the occurring wars. Joe recognizes that he is not fully invested in the war
By telling Joe to stop looking for the attacker is only feeding him to keep going because children usually like to do the opposite of what their elders tell them. Joes’ childish instinct to kill Linden in the end only intensifies the idea that while his parents did not keep him within their “web”, his action was not right because Linden’s right to be free in the world was said under law orders. Even though Joe’s dad pleaded for him to stop, he felt that standing up for his family was best because it only felt like it made sense to him at the
Though not a parent in the typical sense, Joe Starks exhibits many parental qualities, and his belief that he can dictate Janie's life does share an uncanny resemblance to the more apparent parent, Nanny Crawford.
how important it was for Joe to win the fight and what the outcomes could be if he did
Vinny and Joe-Boy are similar they are also different too maybe more than the other but still the same and in the same way different in more ways Vinny is a scared, weak, good friend.Joe-Boy is a brave, strong, but yet is a bad friend
Joe didn’t really understand what his father was saying, because he was new to the experience of evil. He knew that killing people was wrong, but in his mind, there was nothing else that he could do to help his mother and make sure that his family stopped getting attacked. Joe saw that the only way that he could change the situation was to get rid of Linden Lark. Because he would only face the charges of a juvenile, and anyone else in his family would be tried as an adult, he volunteered to do it. If Joe hadn’t killed Linden, there might have been a good outcome. The court could have made him do community service or see a therapist to get better, but he didn’t have the chance before it was too late. Joe had good intentions in that he wanted to help his mother and protect his family, but the outcome was evil because he killed Linden.
As opposed to communicating his outrage he tries to avoid panicking. This is either an indication of incredible resilience or utter shortcoming. There, on the other hand, is a moment when Joe demonstrates that his pride has been harmed, to be specific when he leaves the coin under his wife's cushion in the wake of laying down with her. This is a sudden turn in an identity that is apparently unequipped for harming someone else. Anyhow who can accuse the poor man for he has seen his entire world go into disrepair after the treachery of his loved one. The integrity of his character is completely shown in his pardoning toward the end of the story.
War is a horrible thing to Joe, and it is too late for him to go back and change the outcome.
Joe’s arrogance lives on as he becomes more and more ill. He refuses a visit from Janie or anyone to help him. He even thinks that there is no way that he could die. The doctors were fine with dealing with “Godly” illnesses, but Joe’s disease was something else. The fact that he has an illness stronger than a “Godly” illness shows us that God sent this onto him to show him something even more deadly, to kill the arrogance
Even when he was young and still living with Day, Ethel, and Galen, he was described as “the meanest, angriest child any Lacks had ever known…” (Skloot 112). His brothers were doing fine, but Joe was getting himself into trouble. Once he drops out of school, he is tried in court and eventually goes into the military, however he was violent with the other soldiers and was “discharged for an inability to adjust emotionally to military life” (Skloot 145). He left the military “angrier than ever” and within a few months he gets himself into more trouble.
A sequence of events leads up to Joe becoming almost completely isolated from the outside world. During his time in the isolated continent, Joe becomes addicted to narcotics; he escapes his pain and anguish by succumbing to detached and paralyzed state of mind. Throughout his journey in this secluded continent, he is faced with his hatred of the Germans and his desire to enact vengeance upon them for all that he has lost. When he meets a German geologist exploring the frozen tundra, he inadvertently kills him. Joe experiences ironic feelings of remorse after so many years spent obsessing over the destruction of the Germans. There was no gratification or fulfillment, for Joe, in the German man’s death. Joe felt repulsed and an abhorrence in himself for his

The audience can relate to Joe and feel sympathy for him because he was a good man who did many great things for his family and in the end paid the ultimate price. Towards the end of the play, Joe's son Chris anguishes over the fatally flawed decision made by his father, thus eliciting the sympathy of the audience. However, this is not enough to detract from the audience relating to Joe as a
