I read the article and I have to admire him. He was willing to give his life to help the common working man who was being very exploited. He was largely responsable for puting Theadore Roosevelt(sp?) in power. For those who don't Theadore Roosevelt, he read The Jungle and agreed to improve working conditions for factory workers. These improvments probably would not happened if it were not for the brave actions of Czogolsz. I normally dont like Anarchists, (to be honest, I hate most of them) but I can't help but like Leon Czogolsz. He was a great person.
Roosevelt was an imperialist scum at the same time however. But you are right, he did improve working conditions.
this is the guy who shot one of the presidents right?
I read the biography and have confirmed for myself that he killed Mckinley. How the fuck is that honorable? he killed a good president and a kind man. This guy suffered a lot and he did not deserve the abuse he withstanded afterwords but he is in no way honorable. It would be one thing if he assasinated Regan or something but not Mckinley.
Was Mckinley a Leftist? Or was he a greedy Capitalist Imperialist? Czogolsz put Roosevelt in power. Roosevelt was somewhat on the Left. Roosevelt was further on the left than Mckinley. Hmmm...I wonder about you MITRS.
ROFLMAO!!! haha. You actually believe McKinley was good. That article is extremely biased, first of all. Why dont we start by saying McKinley was responsible for the SPANISH AMERICAN WAR and the USS Maine incident. Great man eh?
I never said he was a great man. Well maybe I did but I didn't mean it. and Mckinley served in the spanish american war but he was not responsible for it. The Uss maine incident also would of happened whether Mckinley would of like it or not. That is like saying that George Washington was responsible for che's death, it makes no sense. Mckinley was a republican and a bit of a religious fanatic but that is no reason for him to deserve death. mckinley even wanted to stop the lynching of the man the killed him. That must tell you that he is a pretty nice guy. And I honestly don't see anything biased about that article at all.
and how the hell can anyone think that TEDDy rossevelt was a leftist. He was one of the most rascist presidents we had. Franklin rossevelt maybe but not teddy. I even posted this quote from teddy roosevelt here already. I will post it again.
"all in all I find the black race to be politically and academically inferior to the white majority"
yeah, some leftist.
you guys are pretty sick to me if you support the killing of an innocent man. You all seem to think that every president of the united states is evil and imperialistic. It really upsets me to see that you all think that way.
you dont seem to understand, he was president DURING the spanish american war.
Innocent? If an anarchist killed George Bush, you wouldnt complain.
I wouldn't complain if Bush were killed, no but I still don't condone it. I would not call Bush's killer admirable. And I would definitely not call him a hero. I think that Mckinley wasn't a bad guy. I don't care too much for religious republicans but Mckinley wasn't that bad when you consider the other slimeballs who have served in office.
and what are you guys talking about Roosevelt being mildly left? that is the stupidest thing I have ever heard. Roosevelt was a rascist turkey.
Theodore Roosevelt improved working conditions. That makes him a bit of a leftist. Im sure because of him working conditions improved for many blacks. He was by no means a great leader, but he was a hell of a lot better than McKinley. McKinley was an Imperialist. Im going to have to research this, but I think he wanted Cuba for himself...
oh yeah and don't forget that Mckinley was the one who constantly tried to create peace agreements with cuba while that shit, Roosevelt went in there and invaded with his "rough" riders. So Mickinley was president during the spanish american war. So what? it is not liked he started it. And at least he tried to stop the war unlike Cleveland and Roosevelt.
Did you not realize that the site is biased against Czogolsz? Of course they try to make McKinley some kind of hero.He allowed the events to happen, he could have stopped the war from happening, but he didnt. He was an AMERICAN PRESIDENT for goodness sake! Czogolsz was brave and i see it as tragic that he died fighting for anarchy, one of the most useless of all leftist causes.
I do think that Leon was brave but not at all admirable. I think it is horrible the way those stupid hicks treated Leon but I do not think that what Leon did was admirable. I think that he was just a bit confused. As for roosevelt, like I said you are thinking of Franklin roosevelt who was in fact a good president although not leftist. Teddy roosevelt was a racist nobody. Mckinley was not the greatest president but he was not imperialist scum, not by a long shot. And he surely did not deserve death.
at least we can agree that anarchy is the most useless of the leftist causes.
Mckinley was American. who gives a rat's ass? I am an American too, sorry to dissapoint you, Stalin
Mckinley didn't stop the war, no he didn't but he sure as hell tried his best to do so. Cuba refused his peace agreements
Is Leon a hero? in my opinion no. Should he be a martyr? then I would say yes.
was the site biased? yes it was in fact very biased. i realize that but I still do not think so negatively of Mckinley as I do of Regan or Johnson. They were the real scum of America and not so much Mckinley.
McKinly and Reagan were all in the same line. He deserved death just as much as reagan does. The only reason you say this is because of how long ago it was. You never lived during the times he was president. so how can you say he wasn't imperialist scum.
and you never lived during his presidency either so how can you say that he was? you don't have to live during his presidency to understand his actions and have a knowledge of the things he had done during his presidency.
Mckinley and regan were not in the same line.
....... No, Mckinley had Roosevelt as a vice president. Roosevelt, an ultra racist imperalist piece of crap. And he himself was pro big business. He did nothing to stop war with Cuba. My god, how can you consider him good. There is almost no US president that DOESNT deserve assasination. Only a few got it.
clear up what you just said. you are making no sense. you just repeated me, thus proving my point, roosevelt was a racist and did nothing to stop the war. how are you contradicting what I said? Mckinley did in fact try to create peace agreements with cuba which was refused by Cuba and not Mckinley. Mckinley didn't want to steal Cuba, he wanted to end the war. So why do you think that Mckinley is an imperialist?
Damn you MITRS! Now I'll have to get out my history books...
