history

Today in 1862, New Orleans fell to Union forces under Admiral David Farragut.

Today, sixty years ago, German forces in Italy unconditionally surrendered to the allies, Dachau concentration camp was liberated by the Allies, and a Mister Adolf Hitler married Eva Braun in a bunker in Berlin. Cowards always hide in bunkers. Sometimes they even die there.

In 1967, Muhammad Ali was stripped of his boxing title because he didn't want to go die for some bullshit in Vietnam.

LA was in flames after Rodney King's attackers got off on this day in 1992.


And a year ago, Richard Cheney and George W. Bush testified before the 9/11 Commission in a closed, unrecorded hearing in the Oval Office.

Alfred Hitchcock died today in 1980.
