> Ernesto Che Guevara de la Serna June 14, 1928 - October 9, 1967

One of the men brought to Cabana was a farmer who refused to give up his land. His 12 year old son fought to protect his father and was also arrested. They were jailed in a large cell with many others. The father and son were taken out into the yard where Che Guevara was seen by the people in the cell to execute the father. The cell erupted with pleas for Guevara to spare the boy, and then with insults when he shot him dead. Guevara then directed his fire towards the windows of the cell. When apprehended, he begged "Don’t shoot! I’m Che! I’m worth more to you alive than dead!" This is a hero?
