“Such a fine, sunny day, and I have to go… What does my death matter, if through us, thousands of people are awakened and stirred to action?” —Words attributed to Sophie Scholl of the White Rose Society, at her execution by the Nazis on this day in 1943. #antifa

I wish she could be remembered for how beautiful her smile was, and not how she died.

@TheGiftofGab @kitoconnell I hope her executioners died in their burning houses as the bombs thundered down from the sky.

One of the best air missions of the war took place in Occupied France. A British Mosquito bomber lined up on a Gestapo headquarters, flying at treetop level. When they released the bomb, it bounced down the street, crashed through the door into Gestapo headquarters at the end of the block, and detonated inside. The place was levelled. THIS is how you answer executions!
