The Vanishing of Albert Jennings Fountain: New Mexico's greatest unsolved crime explained (PART 4) 

I like to think that's the way it happened

@@WildWestExtravaganza your probably right, Garrett always struck me as the longing lover type.

​@@WildWestExtravaganza It would be of great value to explain the points of Democrat and Republican Parties having overwhelming ly swapped agendas post Civil War, (over time and more easily observable in the era following the war and around the Turn of the Century). Clearly President Lincoln reflected the traits of a Moderate Liberal, although the Southerners would have seen him as a far Left Liberal at the time of Emancipation. The Democrats of the era being the supporters of segregation and prejudice laws towards the Freed Men. The African American Man could Legally Vote prior to Suffrage success. Although the Southern States superseded their Right and thus it was the 1960's when they were finally allowed to vote in the South. The South remained Democrat with the shift to Republican beginning in the post Kennedy era and went consistently Red in the Reagan era. Funny that the Republicans ignore the fact and have an Annual "Lincoln Day Dinner". (I use to tease my late Brother-n-Law" about this, he was a big Republican and Chairman of the County Commission in Memphis for years. He was what I call a GOP Republican, a Moderate and * a Moderate Democrat, routinely we saw eye to eye on subjects, with the exception of Corporations and their Political Socio-Economic influence, moving the USA from Capitalism to Corporatism, (he didn't agree that was happening) it did with the efforts of Bush Sr and Jr, hiding in the shadow of Reagan, who set the scenario for the progression, but I don't think he realizes what he was allowing for.). (It has and I am fully opposed to the system.) However, the GOP Republicans were generally highly ethical, Eisenhower Republicans (like the late McCain, AZ) and would not/do not hold much in common with the DT Republicans. Large gap. At any rate, Party changes over time, is an expected occurrence as Humanity evolved and progresses, although it appears like a regression at times, (but that's largely a fear based resistance to change). "Discernment rather than Judgemental" The more folks come to receive Knowledge, the greater the Clarity, and this brings a Harmony that allows for attention to focus on the fuller picture, rather than being distracted on the "Commentaries Produced to keep the Public divided.) "Peace is found where Higher Minds Exist and Cooperation is a Desired Expectation." I appreciate your efforts to be fair in your descriptions, and holding a largely Moderate perspective.

Thanks man! Glad you liked Deadwood!

Love your channel. You do a great job and hope you keep it up. I would like to hear you tell the story of the ( wild horse lake massacre) I don't know if you have heard of it. I think you would like it if you haven't heard of it . I live way out in the country in the Oklahoma panhandle. About 3 miles from were this took place. This story has not widely known and it will blow you away. The Oklahoma panhandle is no man's land. Back in the day it had no law. There isn't much of a lake there because he'll this is the Oklahoma panhandle but it was a watering place for the buffalo and there is a hole nother story with Bill Tillman when he was a marshal in Dodge City and came dawn for a buffalo hunt and almost got killed by lndians. Anyhow it has some good stories behind it. Might give you some good subjects to work with. Feel free to contact me if you need any information I can help you with. Looking forward to listening to any stories you put out. Keep it up you ROCK

You know for some reason in Deadwood, Johnny’s sled never got rusty and Mr. Wu’s hogs sure were fat.

I'm thinking Lee is the culprit, too

Tyler Sheridan should do an entire series on it.

@@WildWestExtravaganza I think I have made at least 5 comments in your videos that you have taken the time to reply to. That is an awesome fact that Will keep me watching your videos.

​@@oldhillbillybuckkowalskithey're good comments!

I'm a native NYer and lived in ABQ for a year (7200 block of central SE) and can confirm that to this day New Mexico has a lot of far fetched plotlines playing out

Thanks

Makes me laugh every time! But Jawsh ...

Glad you enjoyed it

I bet that was pretty fun

Glad you're listening, Danny

Thanks man

Gracias

Glad you're here now!

Thank you, Donald

Yeah, hopefully help in the future

My money is on Oliver Lee.

Yeah a long time ago but I need to redo it

Gracias

Great suggestion

@@WildWestExtravaganza if for nothing else it would be worth doing an episode to read his final letter where he said being stood up against the wall and shot to rags was his preferred method of euthanasia

Thanks

Hey in fact, the good Rev's daughter Malinda/Milly was the one who married into the crazy. And here I am.

Much appreciated

@@WildWestExtravaganza hell yes well deserved. It's folks like you that are going to bring an appreciation for the old west to the younger generation that never experienced it.

I sure hope so

Interesting. Yeah, according to a lot of people who knew Billy, there's a good chance he was not yet 21

Yes

Glad you think so

They got a long history

@WildWestExtravaganza Tascosa is located on the Canadian at a river crossing. The next crossing is at the Dam on Lake Merideth the next is Mobite. The big ranchers couldn't control the merchants at Tascosa because they didn't need the ranchers. The shooting was instigated by the ranchers to gain control. Ranchers gave cowboys town lots in Channing so they could vote to move the county seat. It was a cluster fuk and still is!

Crazy!

Absolutely. Hopefully in a few months I'm going to do an entire series on Jesse James and I want to do a stand alone episode on Quantrill, too

@@WildWestExtravaganza awesome appreciate you!

I appreciate you too

Fingers crossed

I think the general idea was that surely nobody would stoop so low as to harm a child but unfortunately they did.

I love your program, very informative and just witty enough to draw a few laughs but never sacrificing educational value. As a limey would say "good show, ole boy"! Just kidding I

Thanks!

Buenos dias

Next episode

@@WildWestExtravaganza fine I won't ask for spoilers in case there's crybabies around lol. Another great episode

Haha

Why not make it a marathon

@@WildWestExtravaganza That is deff a great Idea !!!

@@haroldvoss5886 A hundert en 7 ain't nuthin', in 1980 lze in witchatittie falls and it hit a hundert and 17. I'm for real, that was truly a scorcher of a summer!

Maybe

I promise

10 gallon hats are a thing

Sadly a lot of manual labor too. My grandma (not 19th century but poor farm people) cooked 3 meals a day over a stove, and when she wasn't cooking she'd be out in the field picking cotton

@@WildWestExtravaganza mine too, my friend. Hopefully, your grandma's, like mine, also at least had the occasional evening gnat smoke or commodities distribution to break up the monotony.

@@WildWestExtravaganzaTough times. Tough dangerous times. Made people hard. Lotta softies around today. Sadly.

@@jasonmatthews7829That sounds funny to me. May I ask what an evening gnat smoke and commodity distribution are? I’m sensing sarcasm.

I thought it was too

No time, unfortunately

Im trying

What if I were to tell you there was a way to listen with zero ads?

Utube premium 13.99 month..😊ez pz

@WildWestExtravaganza il start paying when you have me on as a guest host lol

Imagine how I feel when I'm editing.

Let's go

We going

LEGGO

What type of interruptions?

Wonder if maybe you can find something else to listen to?

Why? Gangsta?

@@WildWestExtravaganza heck yeah, I’m even thinking about getting one.

Do it

@@WildWestExtravaganza I think I am my brother. These stories you share give me all kinds of wonderful ideas.

😅😅😅

Haha

It's the use of the eff word that bugs me. It's not cool. It's overdone. Makes anyone sound like a dumb hick. Who wants history from a dumb hick with a limited vocabulary?

Only one thing to do...start again from the very beginning

@WildWestExtravaganza I've certainly listened to a few more than once. You're killing it, man, keep up the good work! I hope to see this channel grow and grow.

Thanks man
