The highest level of civilization that I remember being indicated is that you were supposed to warn a man verbally before shooting him. Shooting someone straight in the back was not considered gentlemanly, you were expected to give him a second to react or something. Ah yes, and shooting a woman was thought profane, there were better things to do with women. So you are saying that what I have got from films and books is not the real Texas ? Why aren't there more moderate Texans to speak out ? O.K. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
