May Day has been a holiday for Communists for many years. I ran across the suggestion, by way of Instapundit today that, just as there is a Holocaust Rembrance Day for recalling the slaughter of millions by the Nazis, that perhaps May 1 should be transformed into a day to remember the 80 to 100 million people murdered by those who marched under the banners of Communism in such places a the Soviet Union, China, Cuba, Cambodia, Poland, Rumania, East Germany, Albania, Bulgaria, Czechoslavakia and the like.

Communism is and was at least as great an evil as Nazism; I find it startling the numbers of people who still hold it in honor.
