Re: Bonnie and Clyde
Bonnie and Clyde were just gangsters. They lived a life to fail. They failed.
Infamous, yes. Did they rob and kill people... yes. Guess that was cool to some. |

Re: Bonnie and Clyde
Next time you get robbed, just remember it's just jessie james sharing the wealth.
It's an American way. Gangs, mafia, and business. Honed and protected here, exported world wide! Last edited by Tinker; 05-26-2022 at 11:47 PM. |

Re: Bonnie and Clyde
Tinker, "come on man", robbery started at the beginning of time, not invented here in the USA. I look at MPLS CRIMEWATCH every day on twitter, none of it is covered on the main stream news, and you can not imagine what has happened to our city. I do not go downtown any more , at any time, to any place

Yes, We didn't invent it. Cain and abel stuff. We protect it and glorify it. Bonnie and Clyde can eat it. Last edited by Tinker; 05-26-2022 at 11:56 PM. |

Re: Bonnie and Clyde
It was glorified in the depression when the banks were failing and called in the debt, mortgages, and losing the the little guys savings, so after the banks screwed the little guy the people had fun making heroes out of the robbers. Deep subject...I'm off to bed

Re: Bonnie and Clyde
All good. Thanks for the history lesson. I certainly didn't know that. . But who did they kill? The banker? or the guy working to protect the bank trying to make a buck? Did it change banking for the little guy?
Deep subject... Have a good night. https://www.fbi.gov/history/famous-c...nnie-and-clyde Last edited by Tinker; 05-27-2022 at 12:56 AM. |

Re: Bonnie and Clyde
Local banks were not Fed backed till June 16, 1933, President Franklin Roosevelt signed the Banking Act of 1933, a part of which established the FDIC.
The reign of B&C was before that. Local money. But yes the bankers still steal, backed up by taxpayers money if things go wrong. hahaha If you are reading what I'm saying and think I'm anti-American. You are not reading what I'm saying. Last edited by Tinker; 05-27-2022 at 12:47 AM. |

Actually Bonnie and Clyde crime spree started in 1932 and continued until may of 1934 when law enforcement finally shut them down. |

You could say maybe... they helped local banks be insured by federal money. Not a bad thing. There is co-ops and credit unions today that is nice to be part of, they are backed federally too. They did kill at least 13 people. Few before 32. People are people, there will always be a few. It was noted they loved the 32 ford and sent a letter to Henry. Not sure he thought that was kool.

Re: Bonnie and Clyde
Being a genX 80' kid you realize there are people that can't say I'm sorry. No matter if it was their fault or not. Ive spent decades with someone that will never say sorry, just let time heal a open festering wound that doesn't heal.
