The Hatfields has no problem killing people whereas Randolph McCoy did his best to have the Hatfields arrested and tried. Even after they killed his three sons.

Impressively the mini-series was more accurate than most movies. Obviously some embellishment here and there. But mostly true story.

That's pretty cool.

Reading up on the feud, it definitely seemed like Randall was a victim being that he wanted to resolve things civilly (relatively speaking), I guess my comment was more directed at the McCoy family, the ones that killed and fought back
