In To Kill A Mockingbird, at the end of Chapter 14, why does Dill sigh and say that maybe Boo Radley "doesn’t have anywhere to run off to"? What might Dill be thinking of in that moment? What evidence from a nearby passage helps you answer this question?

Explanation:

Dill sigh and say that maybe Boo Radley "doesn’t have anywhere to run off to" because he thinks that Dill has become a recluse who has no family or anyone he can depend on.

When Scout asks Dill "Why do you reckon Boo Radley never run off?", he says Boo "doesn’t have anywhere to run off to" because unlike him, who had Scout's home, Boo had no one to rely. It struck him how unfortunate Boo was though they both wanted to run off from their homes because of similar reasons.

At the same time, Boo had been kept away from social contact for so long that he did not develop any relationship with anyone. He did not know anyone whom he could seek help. And because of his isolation, everyone in Maycomb thought that Boo was a recluse and mean person.

this quote could be referring to the death penalty. it's questioning the morality of sentencing murderers to death as a punishment, because it seems hypocritical. this quote seems to be arguing for non-lethal punishment for killers.
