Cattle Rustlin' and Hangin' - Petticoats & Pistols
Since we have an absent government who isnt dealing with the crime in the inner cities, it is time to resort to the old reliable tactics that eliminates crime. What say you.The vast distances to town, hence law enforcement, often prompted ranchers to take actions of their own. Court convictions for rustling were difficult because of the animosity of small ranchers and settlers toward big cattle outfits. Many times, “vigilante justice,” hang ‘um first…ask questions later, was handed down by organized stockmen. Like horse thieves, cattle rustlers could be hanged without benefit of trial, judge or jury.
