What I want to know is why he was called “lone ranger” when he hung around with Tonto?

Because he was the lone ranger to survive the Cavendish attack.

The legendary lawman was eventually removed from his position in 1907, when Oklahoma gained statehood. As an African-American, Bass was unable to continue in his position as deputy marshal under the new state laws.


Let me guess? Democrats.

Not gonna let the Liberals taint my deep admiration for Black Conservatives and Black Cowboys......Bass was a real man and would in all likelihood been a Conservative....think “Sheriff Clarke”.

Yeah, four hangings per year does not make him bloodthirsty.

Reeves was not hanged. He did face a trial for killing one of the scumbags he was sent to arrest. Not guilty.

No, and I reserve the right to mock anyone who takes the question seriously. That includes you especially. BTW, Dopey, who was the real Bilbo Baggins?

Keep digging but it just makes you look even more ignorant.
