Exclusive Interview with Dr Thomas DiLorenzo

This show will change your understanding of American History and you will never be able to hear the words, 'Wild West' again without saying to yourself "No, it was not!".

Specifically, you will learn that:

*Law and Order did not (and does not) require a Government at all.

*The Old West was mostly Peaceful UNTIL the US Government arrived and perpetrated the genocide of the American Indians.

This interview will cause you to Unlearn what we all have been taught through television and movies; a foundational show.

A fact that I'd recently "relearned"
Murder rates may have been higher in the wild west, but it was due to the medical technology of the time. The incidence of voilence may likely be higher today, but medical technology/infrastructure permits more victims to live - therefore lowering the modern murder rate.
