Marie Antoinette, Queen of France...She was loved but ended up being hung from the guillotine...Why?

She was a beauty, she loved the poor...In those days the poor were called the 'Pheasants' . Marie looked after the pheasants and cared for them. Even at the height of the Winter Revolution when the Pheasants stormed the Reichstag She cared. When they stood at the gate and asked for bread she famously declared 'let them eat steak'. However, this kind gesture was not to save her and the 'lady that launched a thousand ships' was burned at the steak.

Human nature, why did the pheasant's turn against her?

@revenant Ma'am. Normally your historical knowledge is faultless but I fear I must correct you on this one . Julian Creaser came along much later and was involved in the Battle of Little Bighorn where he joined with General Custard to defeat the Germans. This is why he has a palace named after him. Creasers Palace in Las Vegas which is in California.

@AndysAttic My good Sir I am obligated to hang my head in shame and repent to all the Good People of this fine adobe that the vast knowledge I inherited was passed on by my extensive studies of Asterix and Cantfix literature 😑

@revenant My Good Lady, While I respect the origin of your expertise could I suggest that you enrol on a course with the Patriot University. I will warn you, to get your degree you will have to write a gruelling 45 word dissertation but it is possible. Great alumni such as Professor Kent Hovind are testimony to that.
