Billy was a hero to the folks fighting to keep the range open and unfenced during the Lincoln County War---was he not? One man's terrorist/psycho killer is another guy's Menachem Bagin. It's all relative I suspect. One of my favorite books of all time is Howard Zinn's PEOPLE'S HISTORY OF THE UNITED STATES. If accurate, what a hell of an eyeopener. I heartily recommend it. Debunks so many myths (supposedly).
History, like folk music, does not always lie.
