    Pretty good, but you failed to include Hoovers attack on Marcus Garvey and Malcolm X. Without Garvey there would be no Malcolm, Martin or Black Panther party. Hoovers attack on Black civil rights were relentless. He also did not destroy the KKK.

    If considering the scale of perishing in labour camps, fierce tortures during interrogations, and executions for trifles or nothing, Hoover looks rather inoffensive in comparison with his colleagues and contemporaries, Genrikh Himmler and Laurentiy Behriya. Thus, Hoover was buried with honours, while the ashes of two others were thrown away. Certainly, Hoover wasn't an angel at all. The matter is that a supreme police chief is a mirror of all the political situation in a given power. Sergey (61), Russia.
