The first person I thought of reading your post was Randy Weaver.

I like to watch Bonanza sometimes and often wonder what it would have been like to live in those days...otoh, there's a lot to be said about the amenities of life today though.

I guess we'll have to take it as it is and as it comes.

Heck, even living here in Vegas, I rarely go out. I could handle living on some property that wasn't too far out of the way

I think of Randy, yes. I also think of the Branch Dividians, a quack group if ever there was one, but living well within their rights to be quacks if they so desired.

They didn’t set out to attack the government or anyone else. Instead the government swooped down on them and the rest is history.

I am still just dumbfounded to realize that not one single official was prosecuted for either of these cases, and in fact a number of them got commendations and or promotions.

I haven’t watched Bonanza in years, but I do know what you mean, living in a time when things moved a lot slower, and a lot more reasoned.
