Given that she just got done murdering 4000 Sikhs, I’m not too broken up about it.

Yeah, shit it looks like I was wrong. It was five thousand Sikhs. Seems not great and I’m ok with leaders dying that do that kind of shit.

Unfortunately this assassination triggered retaliatory violence that killed another 8000 Sikhs
