Still there not a problem
Too bad that didn't happen before 1917.
There are SO many figures throughout history who should have either been aborted as fetuses or assassinated BEFORE they could work their evil on the world.
As my Dad always said, "An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure."
And yes, I DO believe there are times when "the ends justify the means."
Wicked, I know, but there you are.

I think I heard it down here!;D
Sorry you missed the whole point, Ducky.
By the way, you a great big fan?
FT...wicked, but true.
Sadly, I keep thinking the obama gang's bent on "the end justifies the means..", too. Their end is Socialism and, apparently, we're just too silly to see their point. But, they're persevering, aren't they...."They'll wake up, or we'll get the civilian corps on them.."
That's the "Fremont Lenin" in Seattle, z.
hilarious, Ducky,
Are you a big fan of Lenin's? What do you like about him?
I'm interested that Seattle put up one of the statues. There are surprisingly few of the Lenin statues from the socialist realist period survived and this one becomes more interesting given its ironic setting.
"IRONIC", Ducky? Have you BEEN in Seattle? They treat bums there like endangered species.
By the way, we're living in a country which named a PUBLIC high school after the avowed and famous socialist, Norman Thomas, so....this can't surprise you.
here's something fascinating from Wikipedia:
"Lewis E. Carpenter, a resident of Issaquah, Washington teaching English in Poprad, found the monumental statue lying in a scrapyard ready to be sold for the price of the bronze. In close collaboration with a local journalist and good friend, Tomáš Fülöpp, Carpenter approached the city officials with a claim that despite its current unpopularity, the sculpture was still a work of art worth preserving, and he offered to buy it for $13,000. After many bureaucratic hurdles, he finally signed a contract with the mayor on March 16, 1993.[1]
Close up of the effigy
With the help of the original sculptor, the statue was professionally cut into three pieces and shipped to the United States at a total cost of $41,000. Lewis Carpenter financed much of that via mortgaging his home.
On February 18, 1994 in the midst of the uproar in Seattle that was set off by his import of a statue of a communist leader, Lewis Carpenter was killed in a car accident."
Accident you say?
Hmmmmmmmmmmm!
Sheeesh! What a legacy!
What IS it about the name Thomas? It sounds English, but it's really Middle-Eastern, isn't it?
Renowned BOW Helen Thomas!
Tiresome Feminazi Nag, Marlo Thomas --- another BOW.
And I'll bet Norman and his son Evan have Middle-Eastern blood coursing through their veins as well.
By the way, if want to know what BOW stands for, I won't be able to tell you --- Z wouldn't like it.

Z,
Couldn't have shot him in a better place. Red Square, I mean. :)
L&0..looks like they shot him SQUARE in the RED, that's true!!
Bravo, whoever dunnit! Musta been a pretty powerful blaster too, judging by the gaping hole!
By the way, we're living in a country which named a PUBLIC high school after the avowed and famous socialist, Norman Thomas, so....this can't surprise you.
------------------------
Is that supposed to bother me? Get a grip and look into who Norman Thomas was and what he accomplished.
Mr. Carpenter sounds like a piece of work. Can you imagine having him as a neighbor?
Anyway, if I lived in proximity to that abominable statue, I'd make sure I raised flocks of pigeons and trained them to poop on Lenin's head every day.
Z, when I saw your title "Someone Blew a Hole in Lenin" I just lost it. Cracked up.
Oh, I so needed that.
Bravo.
I love your delivery.
Keep it up.
Perhaps whoever blew the hole in the Lenin statue in Red Square (an act of which I applaud!) will supply the needed ammo to take care of the one in seattle.
The hole was made a little too low. A foot higher, and the cannon ball would have dealt the old bastard a mortal blow.
This was, indeed a work o fart.
