Ned Kelly: Australian Hero or Villain?
What is your perspective on Ned Kelly? Should Australian's celebrate him as a hero or be taught that he was a villain? This debate has happened for years since his 1876 "Kelly Gang" was established. Proof lies in the writings of his own biographical letters, testimonies from victims and witnesses to his crimes, stories of people helped out by his charities to the poor and kindness even whilst 'outlawed'. Tell of your opinions and the debate will show which is a fairer way to remember him... hero or villain?
