So New Mexico is contemplating pardoning Billy the Kid (aka William Bonnie aka Henry McCarty) -- which will really come in handy for him.
But I come not to go into detail over that, but over one of the comments...
Ah, quit your whining! New Mexico elected Richardson for better or for worse. Besides, if they can make a hero out of Abe Lincoln then why not Henry McCarty too?
Um, what now?
