He didn't think it was fair that Ponyboy's brothers had to worry about Pony all the time. Also, he thinks he could get off easier when Dally tells him that Cherry would testify that the socs were drunk and Johnny stabbed Bob in self-defense.

∙ 11y agoI partially agree with Johnny. I agree with Johnny that it would be best to turn himself in because he doesn't want to live his life running away and that he doesn't think Darry and Soda should have to worry about Ponyboy, when Ponyboy shouldn't be involved.
But also, Johnny comments that it was self-defense and that was a good point to use for his defense. Although it is, Dally mentions the court would be much harder on greasers than anyone else. There's a good chance the court may not even take this into consideration because Johnny's a greaser. In reality, Johnny may get a hard sentence, leading into what Dally says about not wanting him to get hardened in jail.

Why did Johnny decide they should turn themselves in in the outsiders?
If they kept running away they would just get in more trouble than if they just turned them selves in. More specifically they did so in order to claim self-defense in Johnny's killing of a Socials gang member named Bob Sheldon. Johnny knew that if he stayed on the run, the other Greasers would still be scrutinized by the police, and Ponyboy wouldn't have a chance to succeed in life. Johnny was willing to face the consequences in order to continue protecting his friends.
