**
Bonnie Parker
1910 – 1934

**
Idi Amin Dada
President for Life
1925 – 2003
**
Arizona Donnie Barker
Beloved Mother
1873 – 1935
**
Saloth Sar
1925 – 1998
**
Susan “Sadie May Glutz” Atkins
1948 – 2009
**
Joseph Stalin
1878 – 1953
**
Ulrike Meinhof
1934 – 1976
Protest is when I say this does not please me.
Resistance is when I ensure what does not please me occurs no more.

John Lackland
Bad King John
1166 – 1216
**
Ilse Koch
1906 – 1967
**
Maximillien Robespierre
1758 – 1794
