RE: How Boot Hill Got It's Name

howdy again today @eveningart! yes Ma'am well at that time there was no law and no Lawmen so men could do whatever they wanted with no consequences. things changed once the Lawmen showed up.

Makes me wonder if we are any different as a society now though. I mean, what if we had no laws, no police and no consequences for our actions..would we (not you and I) act the same way or are we really so much more civilized?
Maybe Britain is..not sure about the U.S.!

thank you so much for reading and commenting!

No, I think you're right - I think it would very quickly degenerate into chaos to be honest! Look at the riots here in 2011... all it takes is that spark, and societal norms can disintegrate at the drop of a hat!

yes Ma'am it's probably similar everywhere and you guys have the special problem of so many foreigners who aren't interested in integrating and being British. that right there sounds like a ticking time bomb!
lets pray the grid never goes down.
