LENIN-CONTINUED

Tito said...

Bury the communist, burn him, anything, he doesn't deserve the platform he is getting. This is the man that overthrew a legit government, killed millions of people, and murdered the royal family in cold blood. Not to mention he is an atheist.

Well, from what I've seen and read about this, a lot of Russians feel the same way as you do Tito. Lenin doesn't have the same image today as he did when he overthrew Tsar Nicholas II and killed the entire Royal family.

Now that Communism has been shown to not be the great way to govern as it was believed at the time, Lenin's image lost its luster and his tomb isn't as revered, so they are hoping to find a place to bury his body, but no one wants to give up the plot of land to do it.

By the way, the only government in existence that resembles Karl Marx view is in England. England has a governing body made up entirely of working class, called the House of Commons.
