The
Cowboys 
What were common attributes of these legendary cowboys? Here are a few:
1. They were never looking for trouble.
2. But when it came, they faced it with courage.
3. They were always on the side of right.
4. They defended good people against bad people.
5. They had high morals.
6. They had good manners.
7. They were honest.
8. They spoke their minds and they spoke the truth, regardless of what
people thought or "political correctness," which no one had ever heard
of back then.
9. They were a beacon of integrity in the wild, wild West.
10. They were respected. When they walked into a saloon (where they
usually drank only sarsaparilla), the place became quiet, and the bad
guys kept their distance.
11. If in a gunfight, they could outdraw anyone. If in a fist fight,
they could beat up anyone.
12. They always won. They always got their man. In victory, they rode
off into the sunset.
