My Points about Bus Stop


Here is alot of my points on this. What I learn from this is, Beau was raised on a ranch in a Montana town and he might have had parents or might not but he had to because someone brought him into the world and I guess Virg being a farmhand was like a second father to him and there were other boys at that ranch and that ranch was owned by lots of people besides Virg and Beau and his parents. I guess ranches are similar to farms and you make a living on things you grow on it also.

What I am wondering is this. If Beau became aggressive and impulsive and forceful and bullying toward Sherrie, why did Virg in the first place want Beau to have one? Isn't that up to Beaus parents too? You don't need a girlfriend in life and you don't need to get married period. Its not a requirement of life and I have never dated had a relationship or ever been in love or married in my life because no one wishes to with me.

Beaus mistake was this. Before that bus trip, both Virg and his parents should have had a long talk about rights and wrongs in establishing a relationship with someone. When you meet someone you can't say to girl or assume to them, you are gonna marry me. You can't force or make anyone do that. If a girl says no or doesn't want it you don't persist whether you think you love them or not. You just move on to another fish in the sea or if all the fishes say no you just forget about having a relationship or falling in love and thats that.

Plus yes when a girl walks from where you are and goes off to a private room or spot you don't don't don't follow them there or go into their private room. Thats called breaking and entering and you can go to jail for that. Even if you love them or think you love them you just can't. Plus at the bus stop roping her was one of the biggest mistakes he ever ever did. Those bus station cops should have pinned Beau down tied him up and took him to the police station and prison.

I was glad when Carl the bus driver beat the you know what out of him. I wish he kept hitting him while he was down on the ground and kicked him in the jaw and knocked his teeth out, then he would never bother another girl and stay away from them for the rest of his life.
