Ned Kelly is now considered as a legend in Australian history, but, the question still remains, “Is he a hero or a villain?” In my opinion, Ned Kelly is a hero and will always be a hero. ...
Edward ‘Ned’ Kelly was born into an Irish-Catholic family, with his father being an ex-convict and having a reputation of causing trouble, and his mother being a migrant. ... Ned was mainly raised by his mother Ellen. ...
In 1871, Ned was charged with receiving a stolen horse, which he did not know was stolen. During the arrest, a policeman tried to shoot him but Ned overpowered him and humiliated him. After he was arrested, the policeman beat Ned four or five times over the head with his revolver. ...
An arrest warrant was issued on Ned for shooting Constable Fitzpatrick on a visit to Ned’s family farm. The Constable claimed that he went there to arrest Ned’s brother, Dan, and Ned attacked him and shot him in the hand. Ned’s family and others there claimed that Constable Fitzpatrick was drunk and had tried to molest Ned’s sister, Kate, then was hit with a shovel by Ellen Kelly.
