And why are the world's most awful writers of schlock, like Will Self and Chuck Palahniuk all Caucasians? Hmmm?

Shouldn't there be a law allowing Hispanics and blacks to write rubbish, too?

I see very distinguished looking Limey, Frog and Gringo gents of 60 and older on 172 with cute well-educated looking Cambodian ladies of 23 who wear glasses, too.

What gives?

It's a sad thing to see a nation kill it's bravest and most intelligent people for no reason...

The day before his death, Navalny was chatting with the judge by video link. He certainly does not appear to be sick...
