Socrates, who lived thousands of years before Christ, once said that if a righteous man who spoke the truth walked the earth, the masses would murder him.This^ was one of several times he so badly angered the Jews that they tried to kill Him.
So yea, they murdered Socrates as well for speaking what he believed the truth. All he had to do was recant and they would have spared him, but he died for what he believed to be the truth.
Truth has a way of pissing people off.
Funny that.
