Jesse James, 1892
One of the many outlaws who became famous through the wild west, Jesse James got his start fighting as a member of the Confederate Army. Following his time in the military he returned to his home state of Missouri where he recruited a group of fellow ne’er do wells for his own gang. Believed to have a “rob from the rich give to the poor” attitude, there’s no proof that he was the Robin Hood of the old west.
As his legend grew, James is alleged to have written in defense of his criminal actions, saying:
We are not thieves. We are bold robbers. I am proud of the name, for Alexander the Great was a bold robber, and Julius Caesar, and Napoleon Bonaparte.

Flippant, Comic, and Serious 
Quite the reasoning he had. Looks fierce.
