Bandits and Outlaws

We seem attracted to the evil types much more then we are to the good guys. Antagonists are more interesting, because they had the courage to step over the line of acceptable social behavior. Famous bandits and outlaws left the place nature chose for them (usually at the very bottom of society) and elevated through acts of theft and murder. People like Jesse James, Ned Kelly or Bonny and Clyde have all turned into icons of pop culture or heroes of folk songs and tales. They were all bad people of course, violent murderers who made their own choices. Yet their crimes or to call it better their way of life is very tempting, despite its short life expectancy. We admire them, because we simple people who survive in the everyday world by abiding the rules strive for the dangerous freedom of being a criminal. Bandits and outlaws through their heists and kills received liberation from all constrains of social reality, thus becoming heroes in our eyes.
