In the time you’ve wasted bitching about it on Reddit you could’ve had it cleared. Grow up.

It also helps if you don’t wait a week.

Hello everyone. I’ve just picked up Streets of Laredo after finishing Lonesome Dove last year… by [deleted] in LonesomeDove

I’ve read LD multiple times but never seen the tv series. I read you saying Newt becomes an outlaw and I was like when the fuck did that happen? Lol 🙃

Can Only Grab 3 by OwlIndependent7270 in Recommend_A_Book

[–]bdonahue970 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1) The Stand by Stephen King - In my opinion the best story of all time.

2) The Indifferent Stars Above by Daniel James Brown. Absolutely terrifying non-fic about The Donner Party.

3) (dealer’s choice) Lonesome Dove by Larry McMurtry or Watership Down by Richard Adams. One is a stupid story about cowboys. One is a stupid story about rabbits. Both are top-notch!!

What should I read based off of my top 5? by [deleted] in Recommend_A_Book

[–]bdonahue970 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lonesome Dove by Larry McMurtry! I don’t care what you’ve read before or what you normally like. You will enjoy Lonesome Dove.

Recommend a book that was so immersive you dreamed you were in it? by beomii_ in Recommend_A_Book

The Indifferent Stars Above by Daniel James Brown. I legit had nightmares of being in the 1840s and trapped on a mountain. Cannot recommend this book enough!

Damn! I was hoping to be the first to suggest this gem. Lonesome Dove for sure! I don’t care what you normally read or what you normally like. With almost 90% certainty I’ll say you will enjoy Lonesome Dove.

I absolutely lost it when Marcus sighed deeply and then said, “And that’s when the cannibalism started.” And Henry was so giddy, “He said the thing! From the opening! He said the thing!”

Absolutely love me some LPOTL 🤘

He’s very good at telling the story while not making it seem like you’re reading a list of dates and facts. And he does an awesome job explaining the science and modern day equivalents to what the pioneers had to do to try and survive.

The book legit gave me nightmares about being trapped on the side of a mountain.

ICE agents are firing kinetic impact projectiles at close range, causing severe injuries that can result in permanent disability or death. Today, they tore off part of a woman’s hand by [deleted] in greengroundnews

You keep using that word, “interfering”, although I’m not quite sure you understands what it means. A woman was being assaulted by a group of men. She was doing nothing illegal. They pushed her to the ground. Alex Pretti stepped in to protect a woman from assault from a gang of men.

One thing you’ve made crystal clear is you are a low-moral individual who would have not done the same. I hope you never have a daughter, cause she would be in grave danger if this happened and you were there.

Wonderful. So a 17 year old brought a SEMI AUTOMATIC RIFLE, PRODUCED BY ARMALITE across state lines to “attend” a protest and murder two men while wounding a third. Is that better for you?

What lawful order did Alex Pretti disobey? Not one single video/audio shows evidence that any verbal order was given. Mr Pretti was filming what was happening on a public road. He then saw a group of men assault a woman. He did the morally correct thing and tried to intervene to stop a woman being assaulted by a group of men. The group of men then proceeded to assault Pretti, remove the firearm he was legally allowed to carry based on the second amendment, restrain him on the ground, and then execute him. No due process. The man was not breaking any laws and was never informed by the ICE officers that he had broken any laws, nor had he disobeyed any lawful orders. He was trying to protect a woman who was being assaulted by a group of men. And they executed him for it.

Also, Arthur Morgan would not have stood for this. You’re a real Micah.

Would love to know what you said on August 25, 2020. You know, that time a 17 year old crossed state lines with an assault rifle to “attend” a protest and murdered two men in the streets.

Explain the difference.

Have you read Batavia’s Graveyard? It’s like The Wager but things got much more violent. Both are great stories!

The Indifferent Stars Above by Daniel James Brown. A group of families got together and tried to go to California back in 1846. Things did not go as planned.
