Deckman I'm researching a murder (65* d) RE: I'm researching a murder 29 Oct 13

You know, this murder hapenned 32 years ago (if i did my math right). I'm quite sure that the Feds know everything I know about the murder. This was a clear case of vigilante justice. Never pretty, never neat, but always effect. Kinda reminds me of Tom Paxton's song: "What Did You Learn In School Today"

... "Murderes always die for their crimes,
       even if we make a mistake sometimes ..."

If the Feds wanna' knock on my door, again, my coffee pot is always on.

There can be a unique quality, ability, within the "folk song genre" that can sometimes tell a story in a way that cuts through a lot of modern communication and goes to the heart of the matter. Historians love folk ballads not for their accuracy, but for the ambience of what happened and why it happened.
