Talking Into the West....West Hollywood that is

Don't mean to ruffle any feathers guys, but this is still Hollywood. I watched every episode, and I've noticed a number of fantasies and inaccuracies, although I admit, this is better than what we've had for previous years. Mr Speilberg treds lightly on the real Indian issue. Most were shot down like dogs; butchered, robbed, raped, scalped and left to rot in the Sun. Can you blame them for being p*ssed off at us? We took their land and homes by murder and force; is there one single thing that the US Gov't kept its word on? The series was OK as far as "TV" goes, but I preferred Kevin Costners "500 Nations" a lot more. Anyway, take a look at Deadwood (HBO). Now that's some fairly accurate going's on during the untamed "Wild West." grayghost
