Yeah but we’re talking pre-Civil war Texas.
Three words: John Wesley Hardin. The first man he killed, at age 15, was a black man who beat him wrestling in Polk county, after the war. Despite killing anywhere from 20-40 men, after getting out of prison he tried to practice law, though not very well. OK.

The closest thing I can imagine to the plot of this movie is Tarantino himself driving around Houston, dressed in drag, behind the wheel of a pink Land Rover with ‘Save The Whales’, ‘Rainbow Power’ and similar bumper stickers, and blasting pickup trucks from behind with a semi-horn from JC Whitney.
Another Quenton cartoon with almost lifelike characters.

FWIW I think all Tarantino movies suck. Now tell me again that there haven’t been any westerns before that deviate from historical reality.

******

Interestingly, my g-Uncle shot and killed Jeff Hardin, the brother of John Wesley Hardin and was never tried for the crime. He was married to a Hardin at the time. Funny how things work out.
