TODAY IN ROTTEN HISTORYwe live in a slightly mad worldApr 5 1815Mount Tambora erupts in what is now Indonesia, killing 12,000 and spewing eighty cubic
kilometers of ash into the atmosphere at once. The blast is heard more than 900 miles away, and
makes summer feel like winter in many parts of the world.Apr 5 1944The Nazis begin deporting jews from Hungary.Apr 5 1949Twenty newborn babies and 57 other people die as St. Anthony's Hospital in Effingham, IL is
destroyed by fire.Apr 5 1951Julius and Ethel Rosenberg are sentenced to death for acts of treason, which in this case means
giving atomic bomb secrets to the Soviet Union.Apr 5 1990London physician Raymond Crocket is removed from the medical register after it is shown that he
paid for and removed kidneys from Turkish donors brought to England.Apr 5 1994Kurt Cobain blows his fucking head off.Apr 5 1997Allen Ginsberg dies. We are sure that Allen's work for NAMBLA (North American Man/Boy Love
Association) has touched us all.Apr 5 1998"Hollywood is run by Jews; it is owned by Jews, and they should have a greater sensitivity about the
issue of -- of people who are suffering. Because they've exploited -- we have seen the -- we have
seen the Nigger and Greaseball, we've seen the Chink, we've seen the slit-eyed dangerous Jap, we
have seen the wily Filipino, we've seen everything but we never saw the Kike. Because they knew
perfectly well, that that is where you draw the wagons around." --Marlon Brando, on Larry King Liveyesterday
IN ROTTEN HISTORYwe live in a slightly mad worldApr 4 1561Over Nuremberg, Germany, a battle in the sky transpires between black and blood-red balls, disks,
and crosses. It is never made clear who prevailed in this UFO incident.Apr 4 1958Lana Turner's 14 year old daughter stabs her mother's boyfriend. A coroner's jury finds she
committed justifiable homicide.Apr 4 1968Martin Luther King, Jr. is shot dead by a sniper in Memphis, Tennessee.Apr 4 1988Arizona Governor Evan Mecham becomes the first U.S. governor to be impeached and removed
from office in nearly 60 years. He was convicted for obstructing justice by discouraging a state
official from investigating a death threat, and also misusing $80,000 in public money. Mecham was
known for rescinding the state's observation of Martin Luthur King, Jr. Day, requesting lists of state
employees who were gay, and using the word "pickaninnies."
