So, a while back I saw an article on the New York Times about how Southern Russian territories were once again employing cossacks as paramilitary police forces. I thought "oh, that's neat, really retro, they look kind of silly with their mustaches and horse whips"

....

and then this happens:

Come on, Russia...I mean, this is getting cartoonish now. What's next? Are we going to see zombie Nikolai Gogol? (That would actually be pretty sweet).

Gogol is indeed about to make a comeback. Only with less whips and more moaning.

Pussies are idiots

They will evaluating be in a gulag...my bet anyway! IDIOTS....go to the France or England and protest then - morons.

The Pussy Riot are pretty hardcore for France actually, there is some army mentality behind these feminist movements.

Personally I don't mind, but french politicians are total pussies.

You're a frenchmen hey?

kylie minogue dated this frenchman years ago, I think he's married to a hot woman now.

I think he did boxing years ago, as he hammered (fight) some f***er

I have no problem with feminists, but, they are asking for trouble in Russia.

Isn't that the point? Your complaint is akin to asking black civil rights activists in the 60's to leave America so that they can protest segregation in peace.

These Pussy Riot chicks getting the shit beaten out of them on national television has done more to help their cause than any youtube vids they've ever made.

The band actually disowned them, saying they had lost the overall view of the band and were mainly focused on prisoner's rights and related issues.

This came after their US appearances this past month or so.

Rewatched the video. Man, that is some ridiculous police brutality. It's not Rodney King levels of bad, but it's uncalled for in any case.

It was pretty hot, yeah.

What did more for you - the ski masks, the whip, or the Russian cops?

All three!

Don't tell Neph.

I didn't understand the disowning either, since through their friends they had an international face and platform to express their views. Of course, getting horse whipped by Cossocks because you want to wear ski masks and such is close enough.

Those Cossocks need to come to merica to learn how to really whip someone.

How can they? Devo's guitarist is dead.

Yeah I was sort of unimpressed. I could have beaten the shit out of those Cossacks, and then I'd have torn Putin's head off with my bare hands and seduced his wife with my bare ass.

She seems to have a thing for asses, so you might be right with that.

Oh great.. bet this is going to be all over the news. Which is what they want. Probably miss being on TV 24/7.

That Nadezhda Tolokonnikova chick is easy on the eyes, if I ever run into her I want her to sign my copy of Rocky IV.
