@CosminOprescu In Germany they were pretty close to shoot on demonstrators as well, but in the end luckily they decided against it.
The question what would have happened if Ceausescu would have still been around is another one. He wouldn't have handed over the power. See his final words, he saw himself still as the leader of Romania.

@snaefell The wannabe autocrat who ran Norway on behalf of the Nazis in WW2 considered himself "minister president" still when the war ended. He claimed his innocence until the firing squad shut him up.

@veronica @CosminOprescu Pretty common theme among this kind of men (no gendering needed here).
