Bonnie nad Clyde

Bonnie and Clyde where notorious robbers and criminals in 1931-1935 during what was called the public enemy ear. Bonnie Parker was said to be an attractive woman, standing at only 4 ft 11 in, and weighing only 90 pounds. She was a gifted poet and gave introductuctory speeches for local politicians. She married at age 15 but the marriage was short lived, ending just three years later. She met Clyde while working as a waitress, and the two immediately became transfixed with one-another. Clyde Barrow was born into a poor farming family with seven or eight siblings. He always held down "square" jobs, but he cracked safes, burgled stores and stole cars on the side. Clyde's goal in life was not to gain fame and fortune from robbing banks, but to eventually seek revenge against the Texas prison system for the abuses he suffered while serving his time.
Although the duo was known primarily for robbing banks they actually mainly focused on robbing filling stations and grocery stores. Clyde made his dream come true in 1934 in what was called the "Eastham Breakout." Clyde was the mastermind behind the operation, he got Henry Methvin, Raymond Hamilton and several others out of the Texas Prison. Phillips, another member of the Barrow gang, describes the breakout as the burning passion of Clydes life.
After this little stunt Bonnie and Clyde were then under the full power of the texas government. Texas Department of Corrections reportedly promised him every person involved in the breakout would be hunted down and killed. He kept his word, except for Henry Methvin, whose life was exchanged in return for betraying Bonnie and Clyde. The Texas Department of Corrections then contacted legendary retired man hunter and Texas Ranger Captain Frand A. Hammer, and convinced him to accept a commission to hunt down the Barrow Gang. He accepted the job immediately, studying the duos habits and patterns to eventually corned them and kill them in a hail of bullet.
Clyde went on to kill 4 more officers of the law in epic gun battles, while Bonnie is said to have never even shot a gun in any of the gangs history.
On may 23, 1934 Bonnie and Clyde were ambushed and killed while driving down a desolate road on their way to their hide out in Louisiana. They were shot with over 130 rounds by 6 officers with machine guns and armour tipped bullets. They went out in a blaze of gun fire.
I think that Bonnie and Clyde were very interesting and i found it fascinating to learn about them. They were celebrates of their time and age, which is quite an accomplishment, to have celebrity status as a thief on the run; yet still not get caught for years.
