On this day, 27 July 1933, bus drivers in Havana went on strike, and other drivers soon walked out in sympathy. This was the start of the unrest that culminated in a general strike of Cuban workers and students that effectively shut down the nation and forced the brutal dictator Gerardo Machado from power.
Machado made a last-minute deal with trade union leaders and the central committee of the Cuban Communist Party, claiming that they would be legalised and given government support if they ended the strike, but the agreement was rejected by workers, and the strike continued, even after police killed twenty demonstrators. On August 9, the military decided to stop supporting Machado, and two days later his government collapsed.

So are the minorities that they slaughter and wish to genocide but for some reason me saying we should kill them for that desire is equally horrible so again I say
No tolerance for the intolerant.
Although some of them may have been good people, they stood together with those who committed the crimes.
To stad there and do nothing is sometimes just as bad as doing.
