Well, he was pretty old.
Here's what I don't understand about the Government killed x to stop them from doing y conspiracies; why would the Government kill these people and just raise their profile and awareness for whatever you believe they were doing/on the verge of doing? Especially in the social media age?
Did you even cared to read what they did to him before he died or you just babling shyt you don't know cause u like to argue??
