Accompanied by his Indian friend and armed with silver bullets mined from a secret mine (I wonder just how he replenished his supply after a gunfight) he came to the aid of those unable to help themselves. We can argue whether this was actually vigilante action or justice, but for a young boy, it was a great show.How could a young boy resist the white hat, the guns that never ran out of ammo, that huge stallion!<\/p>\n<p>The 9P Eastern\/8P Central slot weekdays on FNN has been held by the hottie, Megyn Kelly. Armed with a great bod, bleached hair, and overall great looks, she quickly disarmed millions of viewers and became the queen of the cable airways at that time slot. She even had some good interviews. She made millions, wrote a book that is most likely vapid, and then left in a cloud of white smoke &#8211; like the magician. She expects to rebuild herself among the Ungodly. Best of luck to her on THAT endeavor.<\/p>\n<p>And lo! See who walked into that slot! None other than young Tucker Carlson! Sort of like Trump, he has dained to take on some seriously sticky subjects. Not much of what he is doing is &#8220;safe ground&#8221;. <\/p>\n<p>But I love that he comes prepared, is tenacious, and hounds the dolt professing some ignorant left-wing policy. So far I have watched him take apart black &#8220;civil rights&#8221; congressmen, liberal professors, and others who are claiming to be rallying the masses against Trump. He does it with a smile, but he usually has solid arguments or evidence of feckless behavior on the part of the &#8220;guest&#8221;. And best of all, he doesn&#8217;t seem to let them weasel out of the situation they get themselves into. One black congressman who was professing that Trump was illegitimate got royally skewered. He doesn&#8217;t take past performance as a reason to give a pass for current bad behavior.<\/p>\n<p>I am waiting for him to show up with Tanto, a white hat, silver bullets and that great white stallion (which in modern day parlance COULD be a Z06 Corvette!)<\/p>\n<div class=\"pld-like-dislike-wrap pld-template-1\">\r\n    <div class=\"pld-like-wrap  pld-common-wrap\">\r\n    <a href=\"https:\/\/balldiamondball.com\/blog\/wp-login.php\" class=\"pld-like-trigger pld-like-dislike-trigger  \" title=\"\" data-post-id=\"1628\" data-trigger-type=\"like\" data-restriction=\"user\" data-already-liked=\"0\">\r\n                        <i class=\"fas fa-thumbs-up\"><\/i>\r\n                <\/a>\r\n    <span class=\"pld-like-count-wrap pld-count-wrap\">    <\/span>\r\n<\/div><div class=\"pld-dislike-wrap  pld-common-wrap\">\r\n    <a href=\"https:\/\/balldiamondball.com\/blog\/wp-login.php\" class=\"pld-dislike-trigger pld-like-dislike-trigger  \" title=\"\" data-post-id=\"1628\" data-trigger-type=\"dislike\" data-restriction=\"user\" data-already-liked=\"0\">\r\n                        <i class=\"fas fa-thumbs-down\"><\/i>\r\n                <\/a>\r\n    <span class=\"pld-dislike-count-wrap pld-count-wrap\"><\/span>\r\n<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you are anywhere near my age, you cannot hear the 1812 Overture without visions of the masked rider on that great white horse, bringing justice across the wild west.
