Love to life through the bullet

History, surrounded by an aura of romance and overgrown mythical details - the story of Bonnie and Clyde, two daring and young lovers (it?), Going through the Great Depression. Murder, robbery, ill-conceived crime, chases and shootouts, all - for fun, for fame, in order not to drown in boredom and languor of life. Artistic Bonnie and Clyde sassy story that the two of them left us a legacy.





They linked love. But love is strange. They have become eternal pair, never betray each other. Why, then, incomprehensible love, looking more like its echo, attachment or even passion, mixed with the violence and the suffering of the victims? Because contrary to popular belief that Bonnie and Clyde - lovers, Clyde was a homosexual and was not interested in Bonnie as a woman. And Bonnie, in turn, was "horny" girl - a great lover of men.





Indicative theatricality - their lifestyle. They seem uncertain romance, robbing many not for profit, but for the sake of self-affirmation. Bonnie, who liked to be photographed and always takes artistic poses, wrote a poem in honor of themselves, sent their own Clyde photo in the newspaper and came up with the legend that they - fighters for justice, because banks and other places to make money belongs to the rich, not the poor. Apparently, they liked to think that they are not just cruel and immoral killers shoot people sometimes just for fun, such as in the police, was preparing a raid on another robber, or seller, carefully guards its $ 50.

Once criminals have stolen the sheriff, stripped and bound, thrown by the wayside with the words:
Tell your people that we are not a gang of killers. Come into the position of those who are trying to survive this damned depressiyu.Velikaya depression has done its job. When all the sadness reigned, Bonnie and Clyde, laughing robbed and killed, as though not in life and in the movies. But the right to be called the great gangsters they do not deserve, because looting, mainly, gas stations, grocery stores and eateries of small towns, sometimes all, just for the sake of a few dollars. But unjustified cruelty and reckless impudence with which the raid, made them truly legendary.





Bonnie Parker was born in 1910. At school, Bonnie was an excellent student, true love fashionable and beautiful dress. She has been seen propensity for acting and improvisation, and imaginative accompanied her throughout zhiznt. In 16 years of study cast, and fell in love with a certain Roy Thornton, Bonnie married him. But their relationship did not exist, and they parted. Soon, Roy went to prison for 5 years, but Bonnie lifetime wearing a wedding ring. And perhaps not only because of the official divorce they never had. But truly do not know why.



Clyde was born March 24, 1909 in a poor family with many children. The older brother Buck in the early years taught the basics skills of Clyde. In 17 years, Clyde stole a car for the first time. Arrest. And again, Clyde and his brother stole turkeys. Again arrest. Clyde But nothing could stop. He had enough of arrests, but after one he swore he would never get to where beaten with whips and forced to do gymnastic exercises as long as you do not fall down exhausted. At that time he was given a 14-year sentence, Clyde protest cut off his two fingers on his leg, but it did not help to avoid punishment. Then the family decided to sleep Burrow state governor asking for leniency, and his son became a model prisoner. As a result, in 1932 the Clyde was paroled.



The pair met in 1930, in the small eatery. Chestnut Bonnie immediately charmed Clyde Parker and admired his brash arrogance and stories about the intrepid life of street bums. Bonnie Clyde offered a hamburger, and from that moment they struck up a friendship immoral. They began to earn one robbery, but Bonnie did not like this situation. Risky adventure - that's what excites her. Adrenaline makes the blood boil. After meeting with a former lover Clyde Bonnie, they began to work three. Rumor has it that one day they drank a bottle of whiskey in one of the ballrooms of Oklahoma. They approached the sheriff and his assistant and asked to complete the drinking of alcohol (all remember about the law). But instead of obedience in response to law enforcement officers received a bullet. Assistant died, the sheriff was wounded. Then Bonnie told the guys, enough to play with toys, time to get to the real cause. However, the three of them worked for long, because the husband of Bonnie taken into custody.



After his arrest, Hamilton Bonnie learned to shoot and showed a true passion for firearms. Their car turned into a real arsenal: a few machines, rifles and hunting rifles, a dozen revolvers and pistols, thousands of rounds of ammunition. Bonnie Clyde teaches in seconds to snatch a rifle from a specially sewn along the leg pocket. This peculiar virtuosity both extremely entertaining. They produce their own elegant style murders.
Since then a couple of murders committed with impunity ease. Luck pursued them, it seemed as if the Devil himself defends his agents crazy. They were not brilliant criminals, they were usually young and desperate people, who want to extend the joy of life and enjoying every moment. Even if these moments - robbery and murder of innocent people with endless laughter. Dreamer Bonnie suffering vanity, therefore, composed of "a new band of heroes", he sent her with the pictures in the newspaper. After all, they - the fighters for justice. People do not necessarily know that the fighters for justice actually get pleasure from this mania of the struggle itself.

Alibi each of us in store,
But all was in prison.
As a result, only some of us
Could justify in court.
Easy to change the fate of beauty,
Sank to the bottom,
But no one can be the judge,
Without knowing it at the same time.


The technique of "work" of the gang was the same type. Bonnie sitting in a car with the engine running and Clyde burst into the bank, shouting "Robbery!" Most of the weapons did not even have to be used, with all of that, after robbing a warehouse of weapons, the gang was armed to the teeth. But everything has an end. Including impunity and Bonnie and Clyde. May 22, 1934 "Ford" Bonnie and Clyde were ambushed six policemen. 167 bullets flashed the car, 50 of them were bandits. Frank Hamer told reporters:
I'm sorry I killed the girl. But it was like this: or we them, or they us.



Bonnie herself as surmised his fate.
And if you once have to die,
Lie to us, of course, in the grave one.
And my mother would cry and laugh at the bastards.
For Bonnie and Clyde come peace.


However, it was wrong in one thing - they are not buried together. The inscription on the gravestone reads Bonnie:
As the flowers bloom in the sun and the freshness of the dew, and the world becomes brighter thanks to people like you.
