Johnny compares Dally to the gallant Southern gentlemen in Gone with the Wind because, well, Dallas is gallant. Johnny proves this by telling a story of how Two-Bit broke out the windows in a school. The cops thought it was Dally and arrested him. Dally didn't throw a fit, or defend himself, or even bat an eye. He took the sentence as it was given to him. How gallant is that?! Dally took a punishment he didn't deserve to protect Two-Bit, even though he knew he didn't deserve the sentence. Dally had been in jail off and on since he was ten. He had been hardened at a young age. Two-Bit may have been in jail before, he may have not, but either way, Dally was protecting him from becoming hardened, the way Dally himself was.
Johnny's comparing this to the Southern gentlemen in Gone With the Wind because the Southern gentlemen "rode into sure death because they were gallant". Think about Dally's death. In a similar sense, he "rode" into it, knowing full well that he would be killed. Besides the fact that he wanted to go out with a bang, he was going to make sure he would die gallant, too. The one thing he lived for was taken from him, and he didn't have anything else to love. Not even his life. If you don't think about it the way it is, Dally seems stupid for bluffing with the cops and getting himself killed. But really, it was a heroic gesture. He was gonna make sure he was gonna be with Johnny, even if that meant he didn't get to live.
