Jesse James death--ok or not?

[harmonica]

Bob Ford shot Jesse James from behind, while he was adjusting a picture
no self defense/etc
.....In my opinion, this was good for the community....he was undeniably a criminal --even was planning another robbery
..wanted dead or alive = ok
Robert Ford – Jesse James’ Killer – Legends of America

I guess back in those days that was ok. We didn’t have the same due process as we have today. But those damn progressive socialists had to get government involved an now it seems to be unacceptable to shoot people in the back. How messed up is that?!

Jesse is dead?

anyone told Frank?

Consider it was one criminal killing another, for a reward, I don't care.

(But I dont' think Bob should have gotten the reward, or freedom for it)

..I agree, times were different back then.....the governor pardoned Ford--so it seems like he agreed with the shooting

Did she know Jesse??

 

[HenryBHough]

Now why didn't Lee Harvey Oswald think of that defense........

 

[JoeMoma]

Seems like a reasonable way of killing someone if that's the task at hand?

....I guess we should pick up some ''worthless'' items nowadays from ''famous' incidents and 40 years later they might be worth something
..the US military throws away a lot of stuff/vehicles/etc

"The dirty little coward who shot Mr. Howard"? If accounts are accurate how could it not be murder?
