Jesse James

[noelpne]

The young lad from MossSide, Manchester who was gunned down.
Anyone else see the irony of christening one's yout after a Classic Cowboy Gunfighter?

I'm of the opinion that it's the Mindset of the Afro-Caribean Community to be both into, and follow, "Outlaws" "Rebels".

Examples:-
1. The cult film ( okok it was made 25 years ago-but what's changed in Trenchtown, Kingston, Jamaica ?) the film "The harder they come"
2. Reggae stars with names like "Dillinger" ( Dillinja )
3. Reggae stars with names like "Clint Eastwood " [ inspiration from films like 'GoodBad & the Ugly/'Dollars'/'Dirty Harry' ]
4. Anyone else seen the front cover of the Wailers album 'Soul Rebels' ?

Has the lad got a bro' with the name of Billy da kid ?

Sad I know but I couldn't help chortling a bit when I heard the story that Jesse James had been shot.

Fortunately, he had a brother, Frank, who will ultimately turn to farming and survive into his 70s.

My Wild West Top Trumps were always my favourite....
