    Sochi; trouble's brewing again

    BBC News - Pussy Riot members 'arrested in Sochi'

    Russia does seem to be a mafia state, using racism, jew bashing and homophobia to distract the masses from their real problems
    Socialism is inseparably interwoven with totalitarianism and the abject worship of the state.

    No Socialist Government conducting the entire life and industry of the country could afford to allow free, sharp, or violently-worded expressions of public discontent.

        Didn't we send the Cossacks back ? - could we do the same with you?
        How fortunate for governments that the people they administer don't think

                Against Prime Minister Cameron? I don't think it would be a big issue, they certainly won't get 2 years jail for it - perhaps a court order not to enter that or other mosques again and a small fine, but that's about it.

                Now tell me what would happen if PM of UK (whoever he was) tried to force single religion (Christianity) into schools, army? In USA that would have lead to impeachment.

                  They'd probably get gang raped, and the Imams would be screaming discrimination for not prosecuting the women
