Che Apologist Flees Discussion When Actual Facts Are Presented

I don't know whether to laugh or cry. On the one hand, I am glad that someone took on the myth of Che. On the other, however, I am appalled that we actually have to have this discussion in the first place.

I may well go see the movie myself, if only out of morbid curiosity. I can, however, at least console myself with the certain knowledge that I won't be hoodwinked into thinking that Che Guevara was some kind of hero. And why, by the way, do we continually need to have discussions over whether Communist tyrants were heroes, anyway?
