#OTD 1901 in #Buffalo NY , while visiting the Pan-American Exposition and hosting a meet & greet in the #TempleofMusic , the sitting US Prez #WilliamMcKinley was assassinated by a self proclaimed #Anarchist who'd become disgruntled with his #AmercanDream after losing his job during the late 90's #EconomicPanic .
After waiting in a reception line, unemployed drifter #LeonCzolgosz pulled out a $4.50 revolver he'd recently bought and shot the President 2x at 4:07 pm.
“I done my duty,” he reportedly said as the 58 yr old #McKinley recoiled and put his hands over his wounds. A black waiter toppled the assassin, as police and soldiers and men waiting in line hit and kicked Czolgosz who was soon blood-spattered, beaten and unmoving. McKinley was half conscious and is said to have muttered “Be easy with him, boys”.
By 5:20 pm surgeons had McKinley under ether and were attempting to remove the bullets that had penetrated him. “The greatest difficulty was the great size of President McKinley’s abdomen and the amount of fat present,” the surgeon later noted.
Two days after the shooting, doctors told reporters the #RepublicanPresident and civil war #veteran was past the danger point and they were considering trying one of Edison’s new X-ray machines to help locate the remaining bullet hidden in the President's fifty-six-inch girth, but they never did.
Gangrene had reportedly set in, and the President passed on Friday, September 13th.
“I shot the president because I thought it would help the working people and for the sake of the common people. I am not sorry for my crime,” stated 28 yr old Leon Czolgosz just before he was executed on October 29th after a very speedy trial.
Auburn Prison guards plopped him in an #ElectricChair, tightened straps on his head and twelve minutes past seven, 1,700 volts of electricity coursed through Leon Czolgosz, and afterwards his corpse was unceremoniously dissolved in carbolic acid, wiping all traces of his existence from the earth.
The successor to the Presidency Teddy Roosevelt, never publicly mentioned the assassin by name, but described #anarchism as a crime against humanity itself rather than as a form of political protest.

Die schönsten Attentate des letzten Jahrhunderts Nr. 15: Leon Frank Czolgosz vs. William McKinley (#POTUS No. 25)
Leon Frank #Czolgosz wurde 1873 in #Alpena als Sohn polnischer Immigranten geboren. Er hatte sieben Geschwister. Die Familie zog nach #Detroit und später nach #Ohio. Dort verließ Czolgosz bereits im Alter von zehn Jahren den elterlichen Haushalt, um mit zweien seiner Brüder bei der American Steel and Wire Company zu arbeiten. Dort kam es oft zu #Streiks, worauf die Brüder entlassen wurden.
Mit 16 Jahren arbeitete er in einer Glasfabrik. Nachdem er mehrfach Auseinandersetzungen zwischen streikenden #Arbeitern und der #Polizei erlebt hatte, erlitt er 1898 einen Nervenzusammenbruch und kehrte zu seiner Familie zurück. Allerdings lehnte er ihre katholischen Anschauungen ab. Darüber geriet er oft in Streit mit seiner Stiefmutter und entfremdete sich gegenüber seiner Familie immer mehr. Er wurde ein Anhänger der Anarchistin Emma #Goldman und besuchte viele ihrer öffentlichen Reden. Unter ihrem Einfluss begeisterte er sich für die Idee des #Anarchismus.
Als der italienische Anarchist Gaetano #Bresci am 29. Juli 1900 den italienischen König #Umberto I. ermordete, war Czolgosz davon so stark beeindruckt, dass er beschloss, seinerseits den US-amerikanischen Präsidenten zu töten.
