   All of 25 were killed in the Salem witch trials   
   hysteria, and that's if you count two babies born   
   in prison who didn't survive.   
      
   Queen hag "Elizabeth" supposedly only killed 400   
   Catholics, and she easily in her one reign killed   
   way more than the Spanish Inquisition....   
      
      
   Nine millions sounds excessive, is what I'm saying.
