Re: Free Pussy Riot

Are you gonna stop citing official Russian propaganda when it fits with your preconceived world views about American foreign policy now?

Meh - google "rockbitch" with safe-search turned off. Don't stop watching videos until you get to the pee one.

Proof that women are just as good at music as they are at comedy.

Re: Free Pussy Riot

Seems like it should be some sort of crime to storm a church during a service and start protesting from the altar. I can't think of one that really fits in the US though. Trespassing may be the only one, and its a pretty minor crime. 2 years is obv harsh.

This is one of those "Yeah maybe America isn't exactly the worst thing ever" stories that make me happy we suck slightly less than a lot of other countries.

Yes, but in America you don't generally get thrown in jail for political protest,,America does have a long way to go regarding prison reform though I agree

It's exactly that simple- our number is higher. I guess I was wrong.

There's plenty of people in jail the US for terrible/dumb/unfair reasons. I'll still be happy that people aren't being arrested, tried and convicted for being critical of the President. For any number of reasons, I'm glad I'm an American who lives in America and not Russian.
