Do you know, if Stringbean is still alive, he will vote for Mr. Trump. He can be the head of ICE for the deportation of illegal aliens. He is 100% true American. RIP, sir.

I like how String never trusted banks in his days and kept a veritable cash stash hidden somewhere in his home, unfortunately armed criminal shit bags knew String kept his money at home and planned to rob and cold blooded murdered String and his wife in the hopes of getting rich. The criminals never found the money but did get arrested and served two life times in prison. Sadly string and his wife were not second amendment concealed carrying freedom tools to protect their lives.

He was playing fingerstyle instead of clawhammer. I don't recall seeing Stringbean do that before. He did well with it, too.
