Of the dictators shown above, only Qadaffi and Kim Jong-il still remain in power. But there have also been other recent dictators:
Such as Leopoldo Fortunato Galtieri Castelli (July 15, 1926 - January 12, 2003) was an Argentine general and President of Argentina from 22 December 1981 to 18 June 1982, during the last military dictatorship. The death squad Intelligence Battalion 601 directly reported to him. He lost power soon after the British retook the Falklands Islands whose invasion by Argentine forces he had ordered.
Or, Augusto José Ramón Pinochet Ugarte (November 25, 1915 – December 10, 2006) was a Chilean army general and dictator. He was the Commander in Chief of the Chilean army from 1973 to 1998, President of the Government Junta of Chile from 1973 to 1974 and President of Chile from 1974 until the return of democratic rule in 1990. From the beginning, Pinochet's the military government implemented harsh measures against their political opponents, which included but was not limited to systematic suspensions of civil liberties and violations of human rights. The Rettig Report concluded that 2,279 persons who disappeared during the military government were killed for political reasons, and approximately 30,000 tortured according to the later Valech Report, while several thousand were exiled.
And lets not forget Saddam Hussein Abd al-Majid al-Tikriti, April 28, 1937 – December 30, 2006, was the President of Iraq from 16 July 1979 until 9 April 2003. He was responsible for thousands of his countrymen being tortured or murdered by Iraqi security forces.Soap Box Ravings believes that the Second Amendment of our country's Bill of Rights prevents this type of happening. The Second Amendment was purposely designed by our forefathers to ensure a abusive government could not remain in power such as happened earlier between the colonists and the King of England.
When the people turn themselves over to their government the government then owns them like slaves on a plantation. When the Massa wants to beat them, they are beaten. When the Massa wants to F#*k them they are screwed. And should the Massa decide they no longer have the right to live, then they will be put down by representatives of the government.
