Scriabin, what makes you think such a horrible thing could have an optional good side?

I voted 'yes' also.

However, I'd bet that some people on this forum would say, "good riddance".

Funny you say that, a friend and I were watching a documentary on Jonestown the other day, he said people stupid enough to follow that psycho should have went down with him. Considering what this guy was like, I can see why some people would say good riddance.

They were all socialists, they all hated America and they were all visciously anti-white.

Furthermore, the fact that these people folowed a cruel, psychopathic dictator to the jungles of South America makes it very difficult to feel sorry for them.

One has to wonder what goes through the mind of people to be taken in by a monster like this.

One has to wonder whether or not these people even had minds.

It is a tragedy because so many innocent children were murdered by their own parents. The kids didn't know better and were just brought along and killed by their sick parents. In my opinion it was a good thing the parents and cult leaders died. I just wish they could have spared their children the same horrible fate.

The city isn't what it used to be. It all happened so fast. Everything went to crap. It's like... everyone's sense of morals just disappeared. Bad economy made things worse. Jobs started drying up, then the stores had to shut down. Then a black man was elected president. He was supposed to change things. He didn't. More and more people turned to crime and violence... The town becomes gripped with fear. Dark times, dark times... I am the hero this town needs. I am... The Coon!!!

Yes, indeed.

The children were innocent.
