Medvedev did the right thing.  The murder of a 15 yr. old could set off a firestorm of riots during this time of political unrest in Russia.

I've asked RT... why a RT video but no article about the recent St Petersburg flash/explosion... but as usual... no response.

perhaps someone's watchful eye fell asleep. now we see the results... Children? Dying in jails? Explosions? Brother against Brother? Son against Father? Even Russians are six handshakes away from each other. What happened? Why did everyone and his brother caught that "profit" disease and have clouded their hearts? 90's was a friggin tripp in Russia! Ravaging. Enough already... Even in Russia - the deterioration of garbage is showing through. Perhaps time to clean the house and air it out. 


Good Karma for all the suffering Russians went through is coming to Russia. A lot of wisdom Russians can offer the world. And stop drinking...

The Bible says God's People suffer because they have no King. They will be homeless... then captives of Babylon... then just when it seems all hope is lost... they will be redeemed.

This is something you'll never see in the good ole' USA, where no official ever gets written up or demoted, let alone fired, or Heavens Forbid, prosecuted. Unless an incident leads to riots, each official in America stands by another regardless of how many laws and regulations that official has violated. Even city employees are earning around $72,000 as compared to similar worker in private sector earning $29,000 a year, plus pensions on top of that. It's the city and county employee pensions that are  driving the cities and counties bankrupt.
