READ BEFORE VOTING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
{sorry my bad people hero=yay,villian=nay i fudged up}

i was just wondering if what you all thought of Ned Kelly, if you don't know who Ned Kelly is i suggest you read up on him he was a bush ranger in Australia who led a very unfair life but was eventually captured and hung. There's some great books and even a movie if you guys should feel the need to check that out(pretty good in my opion).

heres a picture of giant kelly

He was Australian

Actually, there should be a 'Both' option. I'd've picked that.

Hero.... Just watch this movie for all you need to know...

Link to film review of NED.

One of the most hilarious movies ever made, if not entirely accurate in terms of facts and history.

NED....

He was a thief and a murderer, fighting for his own interest at the expense of others.

You made the right choice

Have a read of The Jeriderie Letter that Ned dictated when robbing the bank in Jerilderie.....

http://en.wikisource.org/wiki/The_Jerilderie_Letter

"At this time, Ned dictated a lengthy letter for publication describing his view of his activities and the treatment of his family and, more generally, the treatment of Irish Catholics by the police and the English and Irish Protestant squatters. The Jerilderie Letter, as it is called, discusses the possibility of an uprising, not only in Australia but in the United States and Ireland itself, against what he regarded as a gross injustice. Some accounts of the Kelly story see Ned as ultimately planning armed rebellion (some even assert that he aimed to declare the north-east of Victoria an independent republic)."

The guy is a fucking hero. He shouldnt have been hanged - although ironically it was probably his death that made him a legend.

His final battle was awesome. what a beast.

Ned Kelly for President! Because if he was successful he would have undoubtedly formed a federated republic of Victoria via revolution.

Read about Ned Kelly's mightiness

If Osama garbed himself in tank plating and waded through US soldiers in a huge fucking battle, I'd have more respect for him. Probably already dead, though.
