        .Dear Feminists, see how good you have it in the West, where more and more problems r solved w/patience, not Cultural Marxism. Communism killed more than 100,000,000 (100 Million) people in the 20th Century alone. THINK b4 you accept or act upon Agitation Propaganda. THINK 1ST!

        Our MSM & Dems over here are quiet on these occasions as they see no political gain. Demonstrative of our Left where nothing is actual and real, it is All political. Shame that it's so phony. Bless her for her efforts and wish the family comfort.

        Did you have to abuse this poor woman's savage death by slagging your political enemies? Your last sentence on it's own was civil enough. The rest, self-serving. And that's a sad, unnecessary shame.
