‘Why the Cowboy Code Is Not Frivolous’

“A man’s got to have a code, a creed to live by, no matter his job.” — John Wayne
…….The other day the Montana State Senate passed SB 216 sponsored by rancher and Senate President Jim Peterson. The bill is simple and direct and it doesn’t cost the taxpayers a dime. SB 216 would adopt The Code of the West from the book “Cowboy Ethics” and make it the official Montana Code.
…….In 2002 a study by Rutgers University found that cheating was rampant and in many cases accepted behavior among students. The director of the study said “I think kids today are looking to adults and society for a moral compass and when they see the behavior occurring there, they don’t understand why they should be held to a higher standard.”
If that is how our young people see the world Lord help us.’     source
