Back when Anarchism was the big bad scary thing:
He was captured at the scene of the bombing. He said he had one regret: that he didn’t kill more “bourgeois”. If only he had a bomb big enough, he boasted, he would have blown up the whole of Paris.

The real criminals are those who make life impossible for anyone with a heart, those men who uphold a society in which everyone suffers.”
