Pinochet Dead

Former Chilean dictator Augusto Pinochet has died at the age of 91. I know some are going to portray him as a heroic freedom fighter who prevented the spread of communism to his country, but Pinochet murdered many, many people in his time in power, and I therefore have quite a lot of trouble feeling bad about his death.

I studies this guy in school in Latin American Studies and in International Law Classes. Thank god he died allready. It should have been long ago and under the law.
