"A single death is a tragedy, a million deaths is a statistic." (Joseph Stalin)

Seems odd we always hear of Hitler when it comes to mass murderers.From what I recall, Stalin killed many more than Hitler, and many of them were his own citizens, not to mention those sent to Siberian death camps. I believe he exterminated a whole group of people called the White Russians. Millions of them.

Your right Bob and we don't even want to get into what the U.S. did to the Native Americans.

If I remember correctly, Hitler was responsible for the deaths of 6 million Jews, while Stalin was responsible for the deaths of 13 million Ukranians.
