‘Have Gun Will Travel’ and ‘Combat!’ Just terrible stuff....
Mrs. JohnnyP bought some of the Have Gun Will Travel videos for me. Very surprised to see how touchy-feely he was.
She also bought some Hop A Long Cassidy videos. Way different from how I remember him as a kid. He didn’t wait until he was attacked. He dropped the bad guys without warning, by fist or by gun.

When John Kennedy was shot the media blamed TV violence, movie violence and comic books.
Nothing was done except to call for the registration of guns.
When Bobby Kennedy was shot, the media blamed TV violence, Movie violence and comic books.
TV shows immediatly dumbed down. Adult westerns became kiddie shows. Some comic books changed their format for a short while, and movie makers said they would “police themselves” and placed a joke of a rating system to keep kids out of certain movies.
As a result, movies simply became more violent and more sexual oriented.
They also passed that travesty the 1968 Gun Control Act into law.
Today, TV shows and movies and comic books are more violent and sexually oriented than ever.
