This isn’t a message asking for help or anything :).

But recently I’ve been reasearching a lot about the Romanovs (last royal family of Russia) and I was kind of struck today, for the first time, about how TRAGIC the whole thing is. Especially the deaths of the five children. They didn’t really have a chance to grow up, even though the 2 oldest died older than 18. The children didn’t even do anything wrong. And maybe Nicholas was a bad ruler, but he wasn’t a bed person, either. Neither was his wife. I don’t know, I was just thinking about it today and I got sad. I hope people always remember them.
Anyone know what I’m talking about?? Lol :D

Well, people, when pissed and revolting, just want to see the aristocracy dead. Same with the French Revolution.

And I personally think that Anastasia died with the rest of the royal family.

Welcome to history. If you don’t like the sight of blood, please leave now.

Yeah, I know history is bloody. People obviously didn’t like them. I know that the aristocracy dying is usually just a part of war. But pardon me, I happen to find the deaths of the four innocent children just a little disturbing, Xeno Dragon.

Then I wouldn’t look up how many civilian casualties this country has caused in it’s 200 year history.

Of course millions of people have died in wars throughout history! I don’t like war at all (who does?) and I always think death in wars to be extremely sad. I’m just focusing on this one family’s death.

But I’m really, really sorry I’m being rude to you. This just makes me kind of sad and it got me thinking. So I’m really sorry :)

Lol. Trust me, I’ve seen far worse. I can tell you’re just passionate about this, not angry at me. And there’s no reason to be either way. Because I agree with you, it sucks. However, there are more current, and far more severe problems that you can actually do something about.

Ok, good! I’m not angry at you at all! Thanks :)
I’d LOVE to do something about all these awful, current problems. There’s nothing I want to do more. But I’m just 14 so I have no idea what I COULD do. I don’t feel like I can do anything, really.

Donations to war torn areas, but then the corrupt gov’ts will just suck up all the donations most likely..

No, not giving money. I mean volunteer work, right in your own city. There are easily hundreds of starving, dying, and/or homeless kids in your zip code if you live anywhere near a major area.

That’s a good thought.

That’s a great idea, I’m going to ask my dad if we can do that. Thanks!!!

I gathered up some of my clothes to donate today, so that’ll help, right?

If the clothing isn’t scooped up by the gov’t of the countries and never given to the people, sure
