The actions of some soldiers under Pinochet were indeed reprehensible. You, like the phony courts...From the same link:Augusto Pinochet - Wikipedia, the free encyclopediaYou're an idiot. Pinochet was not a fascist. He was the head of a legal military junta and a hero. I'm a capitalist, not some corporatist piece of shit like Hillary and the Democrats.Johnson is going to take some votes from both camps.
Look Jake, the little fascist is saying what we all know. If Trump wins, I hope you can live with it.
Pinochet assumed power in Chile following a United States-backed coup d'état on 11 September 1973 that overthrew the elected socialist Unidad Popular government of PresidentSalvador Allende and ended civilian rule. Several academics have stated that the support of the United States was crucial to the coup and the consolidation of power afterward.[6][7][8]Pinochet had been promoted to Commander-in-Chief of the Army by Allende on 23 August 1973, having been its General Chief of Staff since early 1972.[9] In December 1974, the rulingmilitary junta appointed Pinochet President of Chile by joint decree, although without the support of one of the coup's instigators, Air Force General Gustavo Leigh.[10]
From the start of the new military government harsh measures were implemented.[11] During the period of Pinochet's rule, various investigations have identified the murder of 1,200 to 3,200 people with up to 80,000 people forcibly interned and as many as 30,000 tortured.[12][13][14] As of 2011, the official number of deaths and forced disappearances stands at 3,065.[15]

By "harsh measures" you mean fighting a civil war against communist insurgents, many of whom were sent from Cuba.
Human rights violations[edit]

Pinochet's regime was responsible for various human rights abuses during its reign, including murder and torture of political opponents. According to a government commission report that included testimony from more than 30,000 people, Pinochet's government killed at least 3,197 people and tortured about 29,000. Two-thirds of the cases listed in the report happened in 1973.[141]
Professor Clive Foss, in The Tyrants: 2500 Years of Absolute Power and Corruption (Quercus Publishing 2006), estimates that 1,500–2,000 Chileans were killed or "disappeared" during the Pinochet regime. In October 1979, the New York Times reported that Amnesty Internationalhad documented the disappearance of approximately 1,500 Chileans since 1973.[142] Among the killed and disappeared during the military regime were at least 663 Marxist MIR guerrillas.[143] The Manuel Rodríguez Patriotic Front, however, has stated that only 49 FPMR guerrillas were killed but hundreds detained and tortured.[144] According to a study in Latin American Perspectives,[145] at least 200,000 Chileans (about 2% of Chile's 1973 population) were forced to go into exile. Additionally, hundreds of thousands left the country in the wake of the economic crises that followed the military coup during the 1970s and 1980s.[145] Some of the key individuals who fled because of political persecution were followed in their exile by the DINA secret police, in the framework of Operation Condor, which linked South Americanmilitary dictatorships together against political opponents.
According to Peter Kornbluh in The Pinochet File, "routine sadism was taken to extremes" in the prison camps. The rape of women was common, including sexual torture such as the insertion of rats into genitals and "unnatural acts involving dogs." Detainees were forcibly immersed in vats of urine and excrement. Beatings with gun butts, fists and chains were routine; one technique known as "the telephone" involved the torturer slamming "his open hands hard and rhythmically against the ears of the victim," leaving the person deaf. At Villa Grimaldi, prisoners were dragged into the parking lot and had the bones in their legs crushed as they were run over with trucks. Some died from torture; prisoners were beaten with chains and left to die from internal injuries.[146] Following abuse and execution, corpses were interred in secret graves, dropped into rivers or the ocean, or just dumped on urban streets in the night. The body of the renowned Chilean singer, theatre director and academic Víctor Jara was found in a dirty canal "with his hands and face extremely disfigured" and with "forty-four bullet holes."[147]

Need to provide evidence Pinochet okay'd these abuses. There is NONE. Zero. Zip. Nada. Which is why he died a free man. He was a hero. End of story, commie lover.

The right is playing footsie with a narcissistic neo-fascist. I'll take Clinton anyday. Shit, have the crap you believe about Clinton is probably based in right wing echo chamber bullshit anyway.
Because the left playing footsie with an avowed socialist is so much better? There are whacked out morons on both sides of the aisle. The difference here is that most Republicans oppose Trump. While Democrats have been electing and re-electing the likes of Sanders, Boxer, and Pelosi for decades.
Go ahead and grunt with HRC.Your girl HRC is a tramp, HJ. Johnson is the moral choice.
There you go, Jake. Why have a point when you can just grunt out retarded incoherent right wing talking points?

Swimexpert is just like Jake, they know their party is a mess, a definite net negative to this country, it has been for quite sometime but they are fighting the same wars. It's no longer Ronald Reagan on one side and Ted Kennedy on the other. The GOP has turned into a mass of retards and the only ones stopping them are Democrats.
But Swim Expert thinks Democratic Socialism is just as bad as fascism. Never mind between the two front runners there are exactly zero Democratic Socialists and only one potential fascist.
The right is playing footsie with a narcissistic neo-fascist. I'll take Clinton anyday. Shit, have the crap you believe about Clinton is probably based in right wing echo chamber bullshit anyway.
Because the left playing footsie with an avowed socialist is so much better? There are whacked out morons on both sides of the aisle. The difference here is that most Republicans oppose Trump. While Democrats have been electing and re-electing the likes of Sanders, Boxer, and Pelosi for decades.
Socialism like in Europe compared to fascism like in Europe? If you honestly believe they are equal parts then you have problems.
These loserterians know next to shit about political science, but they'll scream until they're blue in the face to tell you what they believe it means. Social democracy has created a system that works very well that uses capitalism, socialism and common sense to make the most stable society's in the history of our species.

Yes, that's 100% accurate. Are you trying to claim that Lincoln didn't wipe his ass on the Constitution and slaughter 850,000 Americans? When it comes to killing your own citizens, Lincoln makes Pinochet look like a school boy.Lincoln was a war criminal. Pinochet was a hero to his people who saved Chile from becoming a Soviet client state.Bullshit .. he was a war criminal.The actions of some soldiers under Pinochet were indeed reprehensible. You, like the phony courts...From the same link:By "harsh measures" you mean fighting a civil war against communist insurgents, many of whom were sent from Cuba.
Human rights violations[edit]
See also: Military dictatorship of Chile (1973–90) § Human rights violations, and Human rights violations in Pinochet's Chile
Pinochet's regime was responsible for various human rights abuses during its reign, including murder and torture of political opponents. According to a government commission report that included testimony from more than 30,000 people, Pinochet's government killed at least 3,197 people and tortured about 29,000. Two-thirds of the cases listed in the report happened in 1973.[141]
Professor Clive Foss, in The Tyrants: 2500 Years of Absolute Power and Corruption (Quercus Publishing 2006), estimates that 1,500–2,000 Chileans were killed or "disappeared" during the Pinochet regime. In October 1979, the New York Times reported that Amnesty Internationalhad documented the disappearance of approximately 1,500 Chileans since 1973.[142] Among the killed and disappeared during the military regime were at least 663 Marxist MIR guerrillas.[143] The Manuel Rodríguez Patriotic Front, however, has stated that only 49 FPMR guerrillas were killed but hundreds detained and tortured.[144] According to a study in Latin American Perspectives,[145] at least 200,000 Chileans (about 2% of Chile's 1973 population) were forced to go into exile. Additionally, hundreds of thousands left the country in the wake of the economic crises that followed the military coup during the 1970s and 1980s.[145] Some of the key individuals who fled because of political persecution were followed in their exile by the DINA secret police, in the framework of Operation Condor, which linked South Americanmilitary dictatorships together against political opponents.
According to Peter Kornbluh in The Pinochet File, "routine sadism was taken to extremes" in the prison camps. The rape of women was common, including sexual torture such as the insertion of rats into genitals and "unnatural acts involving dogs." Detainees were forcibly immersed in vats of urine and excrement. Beatings with gun butts, fists and chains were routine; one technique known as "the telephone" involved the torturer slamming "his open hands hard and rhythmically against the ears of the victim," leaving the person deaf. At Villa Grimaldi, prisoners were dragged into the parking lot and had the bones in their legs crushed as they were run over with trucks. Some died from torture; prisoners were beaten with chains and left to die from internal injuries.[146] Following abuse and execution, corpses were interred in secret graves, dropped into rivers or the ocean, or just dumped on urban streets in the night. The body of the renowned Chilean singer, theatre director and academic Víctor Jara was found in a dirty canal "with his hands and face extremely disfigured" and with "forty-four bullet holes."[147]
Need to provide evidence Pinochet okay'd these abuses. There is NONE. Zero. Zip. Nada. Which is why he died a free man. He was a hero. End of story, commie lover.
^Patriotic American voting for Trump. Lincoln = war criminal, Pinochet = hero.

Anyone ever tell you you're a dumb version of Sheldon Cooper?
Augusto Pinochet - Wikipedia, the free encyclopediaYou're an idiot. Pinochet was not a fascist. He was the head of a legal military junta and a hero. I'm a capitalist, not some corporatist piece of shit like Hillary and the Democrats.Johnson is going to take some votes from both camps.
Look Jake, the little fascist is saying what we all know. If Trump wins, I hope you can live with it.
Pinochet assumed power in Chile following a United States-backed coup d'état on 11 September 1973 that overthrew the elected socialist Unidad Popular government of PresidentSalvador Allende and ended civilian rule. Several academics have stated that the support of the United States was crucial to the coup and the consolidation of power afterward.[6][7][8]Pinochet had been promoted to Commander-in-Chief of the Army by Allende on 23 August 1973, having been its General Chief of Staff since early 1972.[9] In December 1974, the rulingmilitary junta appointed Pinochet President of Chile by joint decree, although without the support of one of the coup's instigators, Air Force General Gustavo Leigh.[10]
From the start of the new military government harsh measures were implemented.[11] During the period of Pinochet's rule, various investigations have identified the murder of 1,200 to 3,200 people with up to 80,000 people forcibly interned and as many as 30,000 tortured.[12][13][14] As of 2011, the official number of deaths and forced disappearances stands at 3,065.[15]

By "harsh measures" you mean fighting a civil war against communist insurgents, many of whom were sent from Cuba.
