RE: The Chuck Wagon: A Spot of Comfort on the Trail.

lol! well Texas used to be super independent but i don't think they're as much anymore with all the influx of liberals and such coming in.

Westerns yes! but almost none are made anymore.
I heard alot about Hostiles being very good and accurate so I'm seeing it on video sometime.

Sort:  

What's "Hostiles" about?

what the??? where you been boy?? oh..NOW I know how you get ten posts a day out and you are all over Steemit posting comments. You don't watch tv.
The ads for that movie were constant a couple months ago.

It's a big movie starring Christian Bale and is a very realistic view, Michael Medved says, about the cruelty of both sides in the Indian Wars.
I can't wait to see it. But like I said before, our Army didn't start being cruel until they saw their own and settlers being butchered and tortured.

There's a remarkable book by a Texas lady who was captured by the Indians, lived with them and wrote a book, there's a couple of them actually, that I want to get and read.

Interesting that some of the women who were captured elected to stay with the Indians when given a chance to go back to the whites, this one lady was like that and gave birth to a boy who became one of the most famous Comanche warriors and Chiefs. I got some good posts coming someday.

Yes, and some of the people who had it the worst were the so-called "half breeds" who often caught flack from both sides. My Gramma on my father's side was a "half breed."

I'll keep an eye out for that movie on Netflix, or wherever...

oh!!! what nation was she? and that makes you ..what? do you know what percentage?

I'm 1/8th Blackfoot or Sioux...we aren't sure which...

I'm 1/8th Bigfoot and I've been sued.
