re: Any Skidmore, MO residents on this board want to tell what happened on July 10, 1981?

Just how big was this ol’ baw?
Seems like most every little rural area or town that I’ve spent time in had someone or a few someone’s who where regarded as the town bully.
Most were low lifers, uneducated, drop outs that became local thugs and hudlums in their early teens and just progressively got worse.
Their ignorance, cockiness, arrogance, drunkenness and sometimes their love of fighting caused them to get worse and worse and few locals were willing to stand up to them because they were too cocky and prideful to take an arse whipping without pulling out a knife, tire tool, gun, bike chain or some weapon to put them back on the top of the local gang bully heap.
I’m familiar with a graveyard or three in NwLa that is full of guys like that bully, they fricked around and found out that it don’t matter how bad arse a bully you are, there will always be one badder than you and wiling to prove it, at which time one bully leaves the bully chain and occupies the dirt vault.
