everyone has this idea that this was some idealistic time and while i agree to some extent you've also got to keep in mind that duing this time the KKK and the like were huge. black men were lynched and hung on a regular basis. getting away with murder was much easier. you've got to wonder what the underground was like back then. its horrible now but there is also so much technology to catch them. back then there was almost nothing. it sure does look cool though watching that clip.
