Apparently some Russian female grunge rock group known as P'ussy Riot have been tossed in the pokey for ten years for "expressing" themselves. Civil Rights activates here have taken up their cause. They need to find something worthwhile to do. Edited by Thumper, Aug 18 2012, 09:40 AM.

Instead, they turned back to a strong dictatorial head in the name of Putin, the former head of the KGB. Speak out and raise a fuss and you get thrown in prison.
