Good guy cowboys
There are many good guy cowboys. Some famous personalities both fictional and real include the Cartwrights from Bonanza. Roy Rogers, Hop-A-Long Casidy, Gene Autry. Even the character The Lone Ranger was considered a cowboy.
Real life cowboys abound and include folks like: William Barclay (Bat) Masterson, William Frederick (Buffalo Bill) Cody, William Penn Adair "Will" Rogers, Martha (Calamity) Jane Cannary, Charles Goodnight, Christopher Houston (Kit) Carson, (Texas Jack) John Baker Omohundro, James Butler (Wild Bill) Hickok, Wyatt Earp, Phoebe (Annie Oakley) Ann Oakley Moses and so many more.
Why is there a stigma to the label of cowboy? Did those cowboys riding horses have speed limits or safety zones?
A cowboy is not the same as an undesirable person.
Giddy-up !!
