Sailes - there’s a marker beside the highway where they were killed.

"Ur dum" Yeah I was wrong on the spelling to a place I have never been.

Nice to see the grammer skills you have acquired in 8th grade or malibu is paying off.

Cool, was wondering about the place after I had read about Bonnie and Clyde.

The car was pretty mangled from the photo.

"Skills" is plural, my grammer (sic) skills ARE paying off. And your lack of skills is evident.

UR dummer than I thought.

My Mom grew up on farm over there. After the ambush they brought the bodies to the school to let the kids look...not kidding.

Exit I-20 at Gibsland and travel south a couple of miles to Mount Lebanon. Turn onto LA 154 and travel about 5 miles to the marker.

Sailes isn’t a town - more like a community. Marker is in the middle of nowhere.

Certainly was a different time back then.

Can you imagine that happening today?

The last time I was there the marker was all shot up. It looked like the local baws were using it for target practice.

My grandmother grew up in the area and said the school took a field trip to view the bodies. She said it was quite the sight. At the time she was either in Saline or Goldonna.
