I have not had a chance to read that book yet. There's alot of speculation that is where Brushy got alot of his info. Can anyone tell me if that book mentioned the black soildiers that came into town and fired on the McSween house that brushy talked about? That was actually proven if I remember some of my reading after he stated that? Am I correct on that? I've read 3 different books lately and could possibly have that point wrong. Thanks.

"Saga of Billy the Kid", Walter Noble Burns, 1925, republished by University of New Mexico, 1999 edition, page 122 Quote: "Two squadrons of Negro cavalry, and two Gatling guns, and Colonel Dudley in command, were soon moving at double-quick on the road to Lincoln." page 124 Quote: "While the black soldiers lounged at ease in their saddles, Murphy men came pouring into the road from their store and hotel fortresses and crowded about the McSween home."

Brett Hall recently released a video where he completely destroys the neohistorian bogus theory that Brushy learned all about the LCW through reading Burns book. Brett Hall is truly an extraordinary skilled researcher. Quote from the video: "Brushy Bill Roberts account is far more accurate than the account of the Lincoln County War depicted in The Saga of Billy The Kid by Walter Noble Burns, a book full of errors and blatant fabrications. The neohistorians and the supporters of the historical status quo once again have been shown to be completely disingenuous.." youtu.be/tM0RvmJHK00

One version is found in “The Saga of Billy The Kid” by Walter Noble Burns. The other, Brushy Bill Roberts’ account is different. Brett Hall claims the account of Brushy Bill is far more accurate. It is true Brushy’s story included additional details. Upon what verifiable evidence are those new details based? Brushy claimed he was a participant in the Lincoln County War, and if so, would have been a credible source of additional details. If, however, Brushy had not been in the Lincoln County War, the details he provided have no basis in fact.

Wayne, why are you allowing Leeb to continue to mock and offend Brushy and everyone else on this board? Its a disgrace to the memory of Brushy. Leeb keeps ****ing on his grave and should have been thrown out of here a long time ago. Enough is enough, get rid of the garbage.

Finally maybe we can put it to rest.

Brett Hall doesn't get talked about enough. The guy is a legend. That guy is ready and willing to debate any anti Brushy person but nobody wants to take him on.

Leeb keeps ****ing on his grave and should have been thrown out of here a long time ago. Enough is enough, get rid of the garbage. I have deleted several posts from this thread that contain name calling and/or personal attacks. Please refrain from such comments going forward. I once promised I would never ban anyone, having experienced that myself years ago on another board. As a result or at least "partially" a result from that commitment, this board has thrived and now has more than 500 members. That board that banned me is a ghost town. In all honesty though, I have banned a couple of people because the behavior was more egregious that I had anticipated when I promised to never do that. And I will consider banning others in the future, but I will not do so just because they make statements some other members don't like. I will never, and I mean "never" try to force everyone who participates to think the same things I do. I will continue to delete offending posts when I see them. Occasionally one slips in that I don't notice, but I try to check everyday.

I will try to ignore him from now on obviously I'm a novice and a little bit green but if you wouldn't mind listing what brushy knew about the LCW that wasn't readily available, then I can take the time and answer your questions? Many thanks

Perhaps everyone should consider taking the time and effort to listen to the evidence presented in the video. After they have done so they could state something specific about the evidence that they dont agree with. It would be nice to have a serious discussion for a change.
