And it still does...
Like High Noon. The bad guys ride into town and the chickensheet townspeople hide, cower and wait for the sheriff or some masked hero to ride in and save them. I know it's just a movie or TV show but the too-damm-often-used scenario drives me nutso. Transposing the scenario to real life, I just can't see the townsfolk not standing up for themselves and appropriately applying several layers of buckshot into the problem to fix it. Me, if I was there back then, I wouldn't have the slightest compunction against blasting loads of 00 into the bad guys' backs.
Fishing, a man knows a serenity of soul and peace of mind that he finds in doing nothing else, and it makes no difference whether or not he catches anything. The mind of a true fisherman is not on petty subjects.

It was a movie.
About 1/4 of the cowboys in the wild west were black.

What always bothered me was how clean they all were- all have clean straight white teeth also.

"Asylum seekers", many of whom are military age men, allow cartels and other criminals to destroy their home countries. Do they stay and fight, to establish a safe place for themselves and their families? No, they run to the U.S. And yet we are told they are hardworking, industrious, and will be a tremendous asset to America, a country whose citizens fought the British Empire to secure their own freedom.

Ask the James-Younger gang how that worked out for them in Northfield Minnesota.

That can't be true and doesn't fit the liberal narrative of cancel culture.

Ok i’ll give Razorback’s post a political pass because it was a decent tie-in. It was very borderline.
ReelBusy ain’t getting a pass for being stupid and trying to make a threat about western movies, political.

I watch a lot of westerns, they seem to cover vast areas on horseback or by wagon quickly and miraculously run across whom they are looking for within 1 million square miles
