I wonder what the real wild west was like, was it like the movie wild west?

Well....for one thing, about half the cattle drover's were black or hispanic and they were nearly all teenagers, 13 or 14 not being uncommon.

And the bullies claimed the schools.

That doesn't even make sense. Bullies are the ones who want to teach "magical creation".

What about those "enlightened" ones of yours who want to imprison anyone who is a sceptic of AGW? How about all those calls to kill sceptics? Look in the mirror derp.

You can't make up shit and then blast others for beliefs you just made up. It doesn't work that way. Unless you work at Fox.
