Look for editorials against this

[Regulator]

Damn. Finally.

Obama would have called it a celebration.

[CondoleezzaProtege]

Modern Russia refuses.

[A_Former_Democrat]

Better get people down to Florida, Mr President

While the Reps just sit on their asses

[FrdmLvr]

Greatest President evah! Well...at least since Reagan.

[Steely Tom]

You watch: Pelosi and Schumer will demand a memorial to the “Victims of Capitalism.”

[goldstategop]

Expect Democrats to protest it.

[DannyTN]

Good.

One of the things that Trump needs to do as POTUS is to keep the nation reminded of the costs of communism and socialism.

[CondoleezzaProtege]

Yet some of you folks cheered as Stalin and Lenin signs and red flags were waved as Crimea was annexed and think Putin has disavowed the USSR legacy when he clearly not.

China is awful too. Cuba also.

[DannyTN]

Great if they do editorials against it. It will just help get the message across.

China’s system has been noted as the deadliest communist state, producing a death toll estimated to be 65 million

Oooooh, we are catching up, 60 million of the most innocent slaughtered. But hell, there’s good money in them kiddie parts.

“Often referred to by the euphemism “scientific socialism,” communism sought to reshape societies through collectivist systems that seek to change human nature through labor. “

That’s it exactly. The left are at war with human nature and natural law. They think man can be perfected through an all powerful state. Those they don’t want to go along with the left’s utopian ideas are put to death.

And let us not forget the Nazis. A kissing socialist cousin to communism.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

Lefties try to pretend everything they believe is based on science when it’s really based on “science.”

[Montaignes Cat]

A great resource is the huge Democide website of late late professor R.J. Rummel (1932-2014), democide being the killing of persons by their own government. He puts the numbers at 76 million killed by the Chinese Communists, 62 million by the Russian Communists. So much to explore at this site. My link goes to one page, and from there one can access the whole site.

Recent scenes from Crimea

[CondoleezzaProtege]

Top photo from Putin's Crimea where USSR pride remains very high. Next photo is of Lenin statue being removed in mainland Ukraine. Bottom of course is of Lenin's mausoleum in Moscow. Where his body still lies in open physical repose.

[SpaceBar]

100 million plus... and counting!

Stalin and Lenin signs and red flags were waved as Crimea was annexed

It is ironic that they would celebrate the USSR. Crimea was a part of Russia, until Stalin decided to gift it to the Ukraine after WWII, which, of course, was not that big a deal since it was still a part of the USSR. If Stalin hadn’t have done that, it would have always been a part of Russia since Ukraine had nothing to do with its being a part of Russia or the USSR.
