The Southern Confederates are the Bad Guys
FloridaFred21 December 2018
I rated the television series, "Tombstone Territory", 9 on a scale of 1 to 10. But this particular episode is politically correct anti-Southern propaganda. It was typical of 1950's and 1960's Western TV shows to "take sides" on the Civil War. For example, the show, "Rawhide" empathized with the Southerners; most of the drovers on that series were ex-Confederates. The TV show, "The Rifleman", starring Chuck Connors, took the side of the North. In this episode of "Tombstone Territory", the Southerners (still wearing their uniforms some 15 years after The War) are portrayed as the bad guys. How unfortunate that even in the 1950's, TV producers/writers would smear history to promote their political point of view.
