Citizen 'X'

The grisly Russian mass-murderer, Andrei Chikatilo, about whom the 1994 movie, "CITIZEN 'X'" was about.

"That scum murderer ruined the name CITIZEN 'X' when it was appropriated to him by the media. I greatly resent that a murderer is associated with a name otherwise useful to depict an average "Joe Citizen."

Citizen 'X'

Just a plain old normal dude; an 'everyman'; sample example of standard good citizen.

"The police, who allegedly protect and serve the public welfare, often act as an armed terrorist organization. CITIZEN 'X' has much to legitimately fear when he sees their party lights in his rearview mirror."
