(#4806) I am well beyond sick and tired of the putins of the world.

      While I have been alive there have been several dictators who have caused millions of deaths to innocent civilians. mao ze dung and pol pot come to mind. But now we have putin running amok in Ukraine. Through the years there have been some lesser mass murderers like brezhnev, kambanda and hussein. Though they were no less brutal, and despite their death attributions being less than a million for each, it is still unimaginable. These are the notoriously infamous figures in my lifetime who had wrought suffering and pain onto others for far too long.
     Such is the case with putin today. He has a long history of spilling blood of others while living high off the spoils he acquires. He gets away with it because he surrounds himself, like all psychopaths do, with cowards who cannot find the courage to be decent and honorable. I had not been born yet when hitler ate a bullet from his own hand but he like putin are of the same ilk. They want what belongs to all of us and are willing to kill all of us to get it. So I have no empathy toward putin like I have none toward hitler. Each has/had a reckoning coming that may also be similar. Although I doubt putin will pull the trigger on himself.
     “The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing,”-generally attributed to Edmund Burke. This simple statement is profound and is also evidence that cowards abound in our society. Because where cowardice resides murderers flourish. Such it is with putin. He is capable of much worse murder and has even threatened nuclear war if he isn't allowed to keep committing murder. Well I for one wouldn't hesitate to space putin given an opportunity. But I can't so it will have to be a betrayal of the murderer from one of his own. Stopping a murderer from murdering is an honorable endeavor and I hope there is some honor left in Russia and it shows itself soon.
