Fucking badass, reminds me of Liver-Eating Johnson.

Badass motherfucker waged a one man war against the Crow Indians for killing his pregnant Flathead wife.
Jeremiah Johnson was based off of him, but it left out the bits where he deserted the army after punching his CO in the face, or how he would eat the Crow's livers as an insult to their religious beliefs.

Vardis Fisher's 'Mountain Man' is a book detailing a lot of that story and one of my personal favorites. In that he also wages war against the entire Blackfoot nation at the same time. The ancient law of vengeance will not be denied.

One state. Woopty doo. The rest of you still have inbreeding status according to anyone else.

Basically starting in Louisiana up to Missouri (excluding Arkansas because it's so bland), and across to Virginia all the way down to the panhandle of Florida and everything in between is "Sister Fister" land. If you have a drawl, you're also included.

Texans are exempt because Texas is Texas. It's its own kind of retarded.

If they still taught reading in the South, you'd have noticed "panhandle of Florida"

See above, also again if you could read you would have seen it said "in between" Missouri and what is basically the coast.
