Bloody Bill reflected the atrocities that been perpetrated upon Missouri back on the thugs that refused to allow Missouri to secede as its legislature had chosen. Lincoln could not afford to allow Missouri to join the south, as it would have tipped the balance in the US Senate. As a result, the citizens of MO were terrorized by their own government in an effort to intimidate and drive out those that supported states' rights. Criticism of MO bushwhacker tactics is ridiculous - it was war.

Bloody Bill may be a hero to some, but he also committed atrocities against and unarmed soldiers.

??? many comments on here are pretty dumb!!!
the sad truth was, these Bushwackers were exteremly damaged ppl, lived through terrible times, and did and saw much like it also.... there was nothing romanitc (like in the movies) about it..... they were men doomed from birth to live a short and tragic life... and all these "god bless him" comments.... if the bible is true (which i doubt) then he would sadly be burning in hell. Silverfoxxee is right... they were created to be terrible men

I'm more of a Quantrill man. Anderson & Todd were too reckless with the lives of their men, as they proved at Fayette in 1864. Only Quantrill's company refrained from that stupid attack. I'm not doubting any of them's courage, but in a guerilla war, courage is not enough, Intelligence is needed too, & that Col. Quantrill had in abundance. Sam Hildebrand was another great Missouri guerilla warrior.

The Sad truth about the man and others like him, Is that they said they where protecting what was theres, and only killing yankees, well yankees to them where Non-military usely unarmed civilans, don't let the movie ride with the devil fool you, they would murder women and childern just as soon as men and young men. And DID.....And Not only that, They would target Southern civilarns as well as union supporters, which only means one thing, There scumbags. there was nouthing honrable about Bill.

Bloody Bill Anderson was the baddest Mo-fo to ever strap on a pair of Colt Navies. It's too bad there weren't many more like him, Quantrill, Todd, Maddox, Clement, etc. during the war. Those boys knew a thing or two about guerilla tactics and they kept a lot of troops busy looking for them. When I get to heaven, I can't wait to shake the man's hand.
