I did not post this but my post was in reaction to another post. The Earp's were no better than the Clanton's except they wore badges and have been romanticized by the media. The Earp's had interests in brothels, saloons, and casinos they were just cast in a good light by the media of the time. A lot like Bat Masterson, Wild Bill Hickok, and several other supposedly famous lawmen and outlaws. |

![]() There have been questions about Jesse James death. Even though circumstantial evidence seems to support James death there are some conflicting view points. One is that Ford and James staged the killing to allow Jesse to become a normal citizen. Even so Jesse James was not a Robin Hood of the West but a murdering, back shooting thief.

![]() This movie is supposedly a desert reprise of Custer's Last Stand (a debacle in it's own right). Wayne plays an excellent role as the officer who understands and is even trusted, at least to some extent, by the Apache. Fonda does a great job as the martinet colonel just out from the east. he is arrogant and pays for it with his life. Unfortunately many of his command also die with him. There are a couple of things that do not ring true though. The Apaches were not idiots and used cover and stealth to attack their foes. The charge at the end of this movie would not have happened based on their proven tactics. IT was a good movie though even if not that realistic, typical Hollywood stuff

Geronimo ![]() Geronimo was a butcher murdering women, children and occasionally men, however he was no worse than some Americans such as Colonel Chivington (nits make lice). Since those such as Chivington did not face charges it is only fair (surprising considering the times) that such as Geronimo did not. |
