One of the best artistic renditions of the "live and let live" attitude that is at the heart of the traditional American ethos. From one of the best Westerns ever made, Clint Eastwood's "The Outlaw Josey Wales".

I was sitting on a bench in front of library today and a young lady was walking toward the door to go inside. I told her, "When I lived in Chicago the guys in the neighborhood told me they could always tell when I was packing a pistol. It was a matter of life and death." She smiled. ;)

An impressive scene in Eastwood's favorite movie of his own. Will Sampson played Ten Bears but despite his obvious talent said didn't care about movies and only acted to finance his real passion -- painting.

"Dying's easy for you and me. Living's the hard part" -- too much truth in that to contemplate :-s

Great scene, for sure. But I always thought Ten Bears' English was a little too good for an 1860's Comanche. Who knows?
