Loathesome Dub: A DU Western |

Everybody please join in with a paragraph or several!
He rode into town on a stolen horse, his beady eyes scanning the dirt street for any signs of danger. A smirk of satisfaction played across his face (with its oddly chimpanzee-like features) as he noticed a group of well-wishers near the white house on the hill at the end of the street.
That white house would be his new headquarters. From there, he would rule this territory, by God. He was about to bring Law And Order down on the necks of the Unbelievers!

...those who said he had never succeeded at anything in his life, despite being born with every advantage. Those who laughed at him when he couldn't be an athlete in school, but only a cheerleader. Who laughed at him for not being bright or having any sort of ability, even though he graduated in the top 85% of his class once daddy got him in. Those who questioned his heroic military service, defending Texas airspace from buzzards and seagulls during a time of war--sure, he could have ran off to Vietnam, but that would have been taking the easy way out--he stayed HERE to keep his country safe! And finally, those who said he was so inept at making money on his own in business that if he had become a mortician no one would have died.
Yes, he would show them...he would show them all!

His family had been long associated with dubious thugs from the land, associations as far as distant lands far across waters of great divides, all great criminal minds and plotters of thier time, and they had the same things in thier hearts...money, power...darkness.
To the simpletons, the white hats they wore and the misleading rhetoric that had been greatly perfected throughout generations of the evil doers lineage, was a warm fuzzy blanket of safety. But not all were fooled...

3. ...and those that weren't fooled would have to be eliminated. |

Not by him directly, of course. No. He would sooner be put back on the roster of the Air National Guard than enter any sort of fray where he could be potentially be put in harm's way, himself. For him, manliness came from playing the badass, whether it was dressing up in a flight suit and pretending to be a fighter pilot, or saying "bring 'em on" when it would never literally be him answering the door when "'em" actually show up. That would be someone else's problem, or someone else's son's or daughter's.
Eliminating the killjoys looking to interrupt his life of greed and overcompensation for past shortcomings of his masculinity would be the job of the very thugs his family had cultivated here at home as well as in distant lands. But, even if he hid while others performed the dirty work, they all had at least one important thing in common...they would be doing it all for America.
Well, that would be the official story, anyway...
