Bonnie and Clyde

Old Redneck said:
What a life to live. I don't see how they could enjoy living with nothing to gain. No real friends and no place they could call home. They ended up with nothing at all but there failures in life. Nothing to look forward in life. Why would anyone want a life like that.

Bonnie and Clyde were just gangsters. They lived a life to fail. They failed.

Infamous, yes. Did they rob and kill people... yes. Guess that was cool to some.
 
Next time you get robbed, just remember it's just jessie james sharing the wealth.


It's an American way. Gangs, mafia, and business. Honed and protected here, exported world wide! :)

Tinker, "come on man", robbery started at the beginning of time, not invented here in the USA. I look at MPLS CRIMEWATCH every day on twitter, none of it is covered on the main stream news, and you can not imagine what has happened to our city. I do not go downtown any more , at any time, to any place
 
If you look at immigrates over time. The first generation are hard working people. Second Americanized generation...
 
I agree things are going south. But still better then the 60s if you look at numbers. Fear is just a tool. I'm not afraid.

Yes, We didn't invent it. Cain and abel stuff. We protect it and glorify it. Bonnie and Clyde can eat it.

It was glorified in the depression when the banks were failing and called in the debt, mortgages, and losing the the little guys savings, so after the banks screwed the little guy the people had fun making heroes out of the robbers. Deep subject...I'm off to bed
 
Local banks were not Fed backed till June 16, 1933, President Franklin Roosevelt signed the Banking Act of 1933, a part of which established the FDIC.

The reign of B&C was before that. Local money. But yes the bankers still steal, backed up by taxpayers money if things go wrong. hahaha


If you are reading what I'm saying and think I'm anti-American. You are not reading what I'm saying.

Actually Bonnie and Clyde crime spree started in 1932 and continued until may of 1934 when law enforcement finally shut them down.

You could say maybe... they helped local banks be insured by federal money. Not a bad thing. There is co-ops and credit unions today that is nice to be part of, they are backed federally too.


They did kill at least 13 people. Few before 32. People are people, there will always be a few. It was noted they loved the 32 ford and sent a letter to Henry. Not sure he thought that was kool.

Jim I think you are right -Unfortunately there are still people out there who are happy to be dead provided they are (in)famous -what a mixed up world -Karl
 
Being a genX 80' kid you realize there are people that can't say I'm sorry. No matter if it was their fault or not. Ive spent decades with someone that will never say sorry, just let time heal a open festering wound that doesn't heal.
