“”And what part of “The Russians killed 100 million in the last century “ do you not understand?””

“I’d really like to see a source for that. I’m sure you’ll have one I can look at”

Sure - no problem - my source is the United States of America.

Thanks for the link. My preception of the U.S.S.R. was that it was an evil state. Religion was supressed. The results were clear.

Stalin put to death some 20 million of his own people, and that's the context for my comments. It seemed to be the context of yours as well. Here is what you said.

"And what part of “The Russians killed 100 million in the last century “ do you not understand?

If you wish to expand that outside the borders of the U.S.S.R., I fully agree that "COMMUNISM" is probably responsible for one hundred million deaths. That isn't what you said.

The USSR killed 20 million of it’s citizens.

The Russians killed 100 million in the last century

Thanks, spanalot, I was looking for the source myself. I hear 100 million might be a 'light' number at that - we will probably never know. I prefer the term Soviets, to Russians, being in part of Russian descent (it's why my relatives came here) and seeing the terror brought to the people of the USSR by Soviet communist leaders themselves of a variety of ethnicities, who lashed out at any who dared get in the way. 10 million Ukrainians here, millions in the gulags there, Poles, Russians, Kazakhs, Yakuts, Priests and nuns, the disabled, and so many more, communism did not discriminate in it's genocidal aims. I will remember the Ukrainian victims this weekend.
