Heh, could have been worse. In Stalin's time they probably would have been sent to the firing range. Still, two years seems absurd. |

| It is absurd!
I thought things were more open and freer in Russia.
They'd even embraced Capitalism.
I guess not!
Mark my words, this is coming to the USA.
They'd already silently passed laws making the right to assembly a crime!
If someone we know gets another 4 years, this is coming! |

| Good thing this didn't happen in the U.S. They would certainly be sent to the FEMA Camps. |
