Russian police will from now on be allowed to stop and frisk anybody they want at any time. Police officers will also be allowed to enter private residences at will whenever they like and conduct searches of people, property, and vehicles without due cause. The state is investing the police with “the presumption that every action they commit in the course of performing their duties is justified.”
The Russian police will now be allowed to fire into the crowd whenever they feel it’s justified.
Recently, two Russian police officers brutalized a “black”* man because he laughed while talking on the phone and that annoyed them.
The Russian police are also known for the extraordinarily brutal ways they treat peaceful protesters and journalists. Several passersby who had the misfortune of walking past a political protest back in May of 2012 are still in jail for subversive activities.
* This was a man from the Caucasus region. In Russia, people from that region are referred to as “black”, even though they are obviously not, and are treated in a very vicious, racist way. This just goes to show that even when there are no black people in sight to hate, they are invented.

…Of course, upon hearing of these things, expect the Snowden fans to turn around and yell, “Well, NSA!!!”
Their ignorance of what’s going on in Russia while their idol Snowden resides there brings new meaning to the phrase “None so blind”.

Exactly! You have no idea how good it feels to come across somebody who understands that idealization of Snowden is hypocritical and silly. Thank you!

In Israeli news, one doesn’t hear Snowden has ever existed at all. Is he often mentioned in American news and still considered important? Hasn’t he already revealed everything of importance to Russians long ago? Probably not everything got published on Internet ,and Americans worry about more sensitive information being revealed to American voters and some other unfriendly countries.

Yes, the guy is completely irrelevant everywhere in the world except in Russian propaganda and among his very clueless and angry American groupies. For the American groupies, he symbolizes some sort of a childish rebellion against the parental authority. They are too scared to rebel against their actual parents, so they idolize Snowden for enacting a symbolic protest for them that they can live through vicariously. Since it’s not a real protest, it’s never enough, so the poor clueless groupies need to keep repeating and repeating it on an endless loop.
This has nothing whatsoever to do with politics and everything to do with very infantile individual psychology.
