Re: Ned Kelly Gangs Last Stand

Cool post. I've read all about this guy, who seems to be a folk hero to a lot of people in Australia
Because to those who know the story know he wasn't an out law and actually a good man that became victim to circumstance.

That armour is pretty smart thinking for 1870s. Still a piece of shit though

Re: Ned Kelly Gangs Last Stand

Didn't they get forced into the outlaw life by someone trying to take over their home or land, to run a railroad through, or something like that?

I don't think they just woke up one day and thought "fuck me, what a lovely day, think I'll become an outlaw".

the family were crooks - but like all crooks, it was not their fault

the ned kelly story has and always will be worth mega bucks to those who profit from him, and with so many people having no respect for authority, the legend will never die - he was a cop killer and thief, but for some reason he is made out to be a hero

Re: Ned Kelly Gangs Last Stand

Imagine the racket and the shock of the impacts from those big 19th Century rounds smacking into that armour.

Re: Ned Kelly Gangs Last Stand

He wasn't an outlaw or a bushranger.
The n.s.w police force was comprised of mostly convicts and the police force were the real problem. Ben hall and the Clarke brothers were bush rangers but not nedd.
