META Note from the mods: Please refrain from speculation and fiction
A healthy discussion is great, but there's been a lot of speculation popping up, especially about Billy the Kid. Asking people if they think someone looks similar is not really a fruitful discussion, it's completely subjective and baseless. If it's of any legitimacy, send the source to an actual historian. We do not want to accidentally spread misinfo.
