We need more outlaw songs.
In the Depression of the '30s bank robbers were celebrated. It's time to resume that attitude, in specific channels, now that all channels of "legitimate" "reform" have been slammed and locked and cemented shut.
Start with the dude who grabbed the bucket of gold in NYC. Specific channel fits.
I can feel a direct hands-on empathy with his task, since the bucket closely resembles the buckets of lead pi and dross that I used to haul around when I worked in a printshop. Similar process of melting down waste, similar hefty metal.
The news stories are leaving out or missing several things. First, why do they think he's Hispanic? He doesn't look Hispanic. More like Balkan, somewhere around Romania and Greece. Why do they think he headed for Orlando? No explanation.
I'm glad they're not giving more info, and I'm hoping and praying he gets away clean and rich. More power to you, Balkan bucket man.
