Alpo Posted September 24, 2023 Share Posted September 24, 2023 I just finished watching The Magnificent Seven. The real one. At the end of the movie there's four good guys that are dead. They buried them in a row. Nice. I presume there were also farmers that were dead, and they also buried them. But Calvera had 40 men, and they're all dead. It's one thing to dig holes in the heat to bury my friends, and it's okay to dig holes in the heat to bury people that I hired to work for me. But people that were trying to kill me? I'm going to work in the heat over them? I figure if it was me, I would load all the bodies up on top of their horses, and lead the horses out into the desert 10 miles or so away, and just push 'em off and leave 'em there. Let the coyotes and the buzzards have them. You reckon they did that, or they dug 40 holes in the heat? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marshal Mo Hare, SASS #45984 Posted September 24, 2023 Share Posted September 24, 2023 One thing I noticed about that movie was that when some of the guys died they forcefully shut their eyes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sedalia Dave Posted September 24, 2023 Share Posted September 24, 2023 Have to at least move them away from the village. 40 decomposing bodies are going to really stink up the place as well as draw a lot of unwanted wildlife. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tyrel Cody Posted September 24, 2023 Share Posted September 24, 2023 Which one is the real one? I personally liked the one with Denzel and Chris Pratt the best, but that’s me. But to answer you’re question: Yes, haul em’ off somewhere and leave em to the buzzards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Widder, SASS #59054 Posted September 24, 2023 Share Posted September 24, 2023 I would burn them. Keep their money, sell their unwanted horses, guns etc....... and use the money to rebuild the town they shot up. And of course, reward the remaining 'good guys' appropriately. That is exactly what I would do. ..........Widder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
