>Jesse James gives up and intentionally lets Robert Ford kill him so he can quit running from the law and control the narrative around his own death, cementing his legacy as a hero killed by a jealous cowardIs this how it really went down in real life?
Sure, why not
>>215085896Only Jesse knows for sure.
Don't know. IRL by the time of his death James knew the Ford brothers were shady and would likely betray him. Him taking off his guns and turning his back on them was either him being retardedly careless or a deliberate just kill me now move.
>>215085896None of us were there
>>215085896They were probably gay for each other
>>215085896Does it matter?
>>215085896Jesse wasn’t known for being smart. After Northfield he thought he could keep going with a ragtag gang of inbred cousins. Frank was the brains of the operation.
>>215085896where they all gay?
>>215085948They make it seem like he saw the story playing out and let it happen because the alternative was killing them both and moving his family all over again. Maybe he thought dying by his fanboy would be a more fitting end than getting shot by pinkertons or going to jail. I wonder how close that is to the real events

>>215086173all you need to do is surround yourself with smart and capable people, thus jesse was indeed smart
Crazy how America is supposed to be this Land of Opportunity, Equality and Freedom, but at the end of the day just like anywhere else there's some guys that have a God-given mandate to enact violence, and those that are expressly forbidden from doing so. Natural order triumphs over all things, it seems - the fit reign supreme, the unfit perish in ignomy.
>>215086705I wouldn’t call being hunted like dogs by lawmen and bounty hunters ”reigning supreme”.
>>215086705The whole movie is how a sperg loser shoots the coolest outlaw ever and shut up midwit
>>215087039No, the whole movie is about history glamorizing villains. Jesse wasn't a hero in any sense of the word and wasn't at the time Ford shot him. "History" paved over that.
>>215087039Why is the coolest outlaw allowed to shoot people but the sperg isn't? The answer is because it's natural. We know who is supposed to win and who is supposed to lose at an instinctive level. There is no greater good than to simply act in compliance with how life must be as instinctively understood by the collective consciousness of our genetic memory.
>>215085948It's equally possible that he was a retarded violent dipshit nigger like all his ilk and he did NOT think they would betray him.I have a harder time believing he was some deeply insightful le mystery man ready for ebin poetic death than I do believing he was a stupid violent murderous nigger that was doing the equivalent of robbing corner stores and tormenting working class people
>>215086983Infractions by weak and fat men making artificial civilian systems and laws in order to stop the unstoppable, stem the unstemmable and cage the uncageable. As all empires, their doom is imminent and incontrovertible, for weak men can hold no inner strength which lasts eternal. Thus unto all tyrants.
>>215087245nta but stop trying so hard, this lame blackpilled stuff got boring a decade ago
Men of weakness with guns are cowards. Men of strength with guns are kings.
>>215087281We can only guess, but James was paranoid and him finding out Dick was captured and his confession to what happened to Wood would clue him onto the Ford's. Him removing his guns may or may not have happened. That part of the story seems pretty dubious to me.
