The draft laws allowed substitutes , meaning the rich could get out of serving in the army. this naturally made those who could't afford a substitute to be angered .

As the Bloody Sunday, as the 1905 Revolution was named, was a turmoil of the people of Russia calling for a change in their government as a result of all the wrong decisions made by the czars, if I could go back in time to avoid such a massacre I would urge czar Nicholas II to grant basic rights to the population, to grant citizens the most basic civil liberties, to bridge the gap between the lower class of the population and the feudal lords who still owned the vast majority of lands farmed by peasants and I will also advice him to provide better labor conditions for all the labor force. Thus, I would expect a society with a better lifestyle, whose rights were respected and fulfilled, the wellbeing of the workers at work place, a better economy for worker class, so that they would not need to lead to uprisings to protest, and call for changes. In a result, the great massacre could be avoided.
