~Im no fan of the czars, but at their worst they kept something like a few thousand political prisoners, and the prisons they kept them in were these quaint sort of low security affairs where the prisoners could stroll around the courtyard and spend their days writing political missives and their families could come visit them and bring them meals and that sort of thing.~
Yep, they overlooked Lenin&Stalin and guilty by negligence. No sympathy from me.
Stalin was a convicted felon guilty of bank robberies and a cop killer. They should have hanged him high.
I’m sure justice caught up with him in what, 1953?
