This Day in the History of Evil
On this day in 1945, Nazi propaganda minister Joseph Goebbels, having killed with cyanide his 6 children, aged 5 to 12, the night before, shot his wife Magda before he committed suicide in the Führerbunker at the corner of Wilhelmstraße and Voßstraße in Berlin. His wife urged him on saying she did not want to live in a world without National Socialism. So that worked out for everyone.
