What does it say, since I’m not inclined to subscribe to the Chicago Tribune? (Wouldn’t that mean spending money to support liberals?)
A standard western plot was the need of the individual to stand for truth against mob rule. The sheriff facing the mob, the cowboy who testifies about something unpopular, the guy who refuses to back down in spite of a criminal gang - those were standard plots for shows like The Virginian, Bonanza, Wagon Train, etc.
They were part and parcel of pre-1965 America. If someone made one now, everyone would laugh. Well, everyone within 100 miles of a coastline or in a city with over 1,000,000 people would laugh.
The solution to Ferguson is simple.... East Saint Louis across the Mississippi in Illinois.
John Kass of the Chicago Tribune knows what he’s talking about... Thanks for posting this rellimpank - it’s a gem.
