I know lots of Russians that live here and wants to kill putin. You are not being honest.
1. So why are people get arrested when they demonstrating peacefully?
2. Freedom of speak in your kitchen but not freedom as you publish your opinion to the public.
3. Your media are in total control by Putin and his cronies.
4. Didn't they just had a demonstration against corruption but they arrested all the leaders?
5. Give me one example that non Russian like me would consider Putin a nice guy.
6. Why political opponents are being murdered?
7. They are rounding up gays and lesbians.
Those are facts.
Lots of Russian living in the USA are poisoned by your propaganda. Or how can you explain such a high level of putin's popularity in Russia? There are numerous social interviews proving that, anonymous as well, organized by foreign organizations as well.
1. Last arrests were 12 of April. The strictest punishment was 15 days in jail. Only those were arrested who organized meetings in not approved by local authorities places. They are all free now.
Let's recall how American authorities act against such demonstrations - occupy Wall Street, recent rallies in Dakota, anti-police violence rallies...
Remember in October 2013 woman was shot near capitoleum?
2. Freedom of publication of any opinions. You may check web sites, video blogs, tv and radio channels who everyday express their anti government statements. On central tv channels there are many political talk shows where opposing people are invited. About a month ago there was video call to Ukrainian general who could say whatever he wanted. And he expressed his being surprised in Ukrainian media next day.
3. Nothing of the kind. Read the previous point.
4. Not all but few of them. Those who violated the law. And the are free now.
5. One reason. If you stop blindly believe to your mainstream media and start look for more alternative sources. If you try to think on who is the one getting benefit from one case or another. In that case after about month or two you will realize that Western policy is sick and western media are filled with lies and propaganda. Than you will understand who does better for the world in common, who is honest.
Why Russia suddenly became so bad? They only wanted not to be touched not to be threatened... but when the USA began to organize color revolutions around Russia they had to protect themselves. Isn't it? When the USA settled rocket systems in Eastern Europe why shouldn't it supposed to be a threat? What would happen if Russian set rockets in Cuba, Venezuela? If Russia would change regime in Mexico?
Try to imagine mirror situation for more objective points of view.
6. Who is murdered? Nemtsov?
He was not so popular. He was in opposition for many years and nobody killed him. And do you really believe Putin is so stupid to organize murder in front of kremlin? The same bs as in Litvinenko case where western official point of view is "plutonium was used to murder him". Plutonium. Right for easier tracking who did it.
Weren't suspicious deaths of those who were opposing Clinton while your recent elections?
7. Who and where rounds up gays? I would place them to special clinics for curing but Russian authorities don't do it.
All we have against homosexuals is the only law: propaganda of homosexuality among children is forbidden. Gay parades sometimes are organized but our people are very negative to them do police is forced to protect them. Why cannot people follow their Christianic values why should we protect sick idiots?
The position of most Russians about gays is: if you wish to fuck ass - do it! But do it quietly at home and don't involve normal people or especially children in your perversion.
All you posted are not facts. But what you suppose to be facts.
