Anarchists on huge anti-government rally in Moscow
Over 100,000 protesters gathered in Moscow to demonstrate against
Vladimir Putin. There was violent clashed between protesters and police
resulting in over 400 arrests.
On the 6th of May, a lot of anarchists took part in almost all events
which occured in Moscow. There was a peaceful march from Kaluzhskаja to
Bolotnaja square, after that it became clear that the entrance was
forbidden for people, protesting against the inauguration of Putin. The
anarchists were in the front line, took an active part in fights with
police, throwing at them bottles, umbrellas, sticks, asphalt pieces,
smoke bombs and Molotov cocktails.
Following that, anarchists tented and didn’t let displace them from the
square.
To build the barricades the anarchists used metal cordons and even
biotoilets. The most active protesters were arrested, however, some of
them managed to rescue from the policemen.
The both sides had the wounded, a part of whom were hospitalized.
Despite the fact that the police were able to divide 100,000 of
protesters into small groups and extrude them either out of Bolotnaja
Square and the opposite side of the Obvodnyj channel, many anarchists as
well as hundreds of other participants were left standing on the Small
Moskvoretsky Bridge and later they started a new procession down the
Bolchaja Ordynka street.
The movement on the streets was stopped by the police. Media reported
that a spontaneous demonstration at the beginning of the Bolchaja
Tatarskaja Street and then blocked near the Tretyakov Gallery was
organized by about 2 000 people.
However, about 200-300 people came to police station 'Yakimanka" where
the detainees were kept. Almost at midnignt, the protesters were kicked
out from there, most active of them were re-arrested.
Police apprehended more than 400 people, including at least 30 anarchists.
According to preliminary data of the police, the total number of
detainees rose at 450, while 11 participants and about 30 policemen
wounded, including knife wounds. Law enforcement agencies reported,
three policemen got a head injury, two - split chins and 7 policemen
suffered from the gaz sprays.
At the police stations detainees were being bitten, an ambulance took
from “Meshchansky” station three participants. The interrogations of
injured have been already started in hospitals.
The prosecutor's office launched criminal cases under article "Calls for
the riot" and "Violence against representatives of authority",
nevertheless, the violence inflicted by police was legal.
All the detainees are to face Article 19.3 of the Administrative Code
(disobeying a lawful order of a police officer), according to the laws,
they can be arrested for 15 days. Most of the activists spent the night
in police stations. It is also reported of the allegations against some
protesters referring to Articles Part 3. 212 of the Criminal Code -
“Calls for the riot”, and Part 1 of Art. 318 of the Criminal Code -
"Violence against representatives of authority"
According to police, "March of Millions" gathered about 8000 people.
Some opposition members claim that here were about 100 thousand people.
But 20,000 participants seem to be most realistic.
Let us remind that the large-scale protests started in Moscow in
December after the falsification of parliamentary election results, and
went on following the presidential election on March 4. The Russian
opposition movement consists of several groups. On Sunday, May 6,
demonstrators with (hanging) black and red flags cooperated with
representatives of the Libertarian Party of Russia, and Russian Orthodox
monarchists walked with people who have the portraits of Cuban
revolutionary Che Guevara in their hands.
But they all were united by an aversion to the perspective of Vladimir
Putin’s return in the Kremlin for another 12 years.

Why do you do these riot protests that only play into the hands of
people clammoring for harsher police tactics ? If you want to fight a
war or an armed overthrow of the Government, why don't you do it for real ?
Would you go against one of the best trained armies in the world with
molotov coctails and disorderly youth ? Wouldn't you prefer to do it
with serious people using serious weapons, create a split in the army
and police forces and drive it home ? See what a pathetic bunch of
loosers .... ? You anarchists are not real, you think you're tough and
violent - and you are violent - but you don't really mean it. You just
play the counter part in the waltz of tyranny. Even if you win, what
will you do ? What system do you favor ? You got nothing on paper !
You can't even debate that, every time you anarchists challenged on the
emptyness of their creed, it's just more handwaving or about singing
cumbaya and we will all be happy friends once all structure of society
has been replaced with ... nothingness.
Why do you need violence anyway ? There is no need for violence to
run a real revolution, except perhaps in a support role and as a precurser
to a revolution taking on the tasks of law enforcement against violent
criminals to be brought to properly trained Judges who conduct fair
public trials with real evidence based on reasonable laws and all the
rights of the defendants. There is especially no need for violence if
you haven't even attempted to do things non-violently. With non-violence
I don't mean civil-disobedience and other actions that are mere
precursers to violence; but I maen organizing yourselves properly and
doing good things for yourself and the people.
It will probably take a long time to change an Empire like Russia, so
you have to start small and build up a good name for yourself. Hurting
police officers and raging riots isn't helping. Is it a coincidence,
by the way, that a U$A politician (McCain) recently warned that the
fake color revolutions and fake arab spring revolutions would soon
come to Russia, and now they have ? Is it a coincidence that they are
again doing the tactics of the book written by Gene Sharp, who said
to DISPUTE ELECTIONS (apparentyl even if there is no doubt about them) ?
THat is whom you serve it owuld seem: you're the canon fodder for the
IRI, International Republican Institute, you're the canon fodder for
McCain.

This week, John McCain removed a post on his twitter feed that read,
“Dear Vlad, The #ArabSpring is coming to a neighborhood near you”.
End quote.
I have some 'news' for the anarchist rioteers, too brainless to know
who pulls their strings: we won't tolerate your riots after the revolution.
We won't torture you once we have you captured, but prison sentences
may end up pretty long and may include forced repair of what you destroyed.
If you don't want to repair it or are deemed to incompetent, you'll be
given forced labor and we'll sell teh proceeds until you payed for what
you damaged. Sounds fair to me. Make sure you don't ruin expensive things
or you could be in jail on forced labor for years. WE DO WHAT WE SAY.
Damned assholes.
I'm no fan of the Russia 'maffiocracy,' mind you; but no fan of this
never ending wild anarchist violence cycle either. Then all of a sudden
you hear the anarchists claim they had instigators. WHen for a change
they decided NOT to riot ?! How credible is that to anyone ? Here this
Dan boy is again covering for anarchist violence, and next time it is
the instigators that done it ? Anarchism is a disgrace for the struggle
of the labor classes, their violence and covering for the violence of
those that commit it under their flag can only lead to one response:
wholesale dismisal of those amateurs.
We are watching you guys ... Watch these asshole anarchists when the
revolution comes, like a hawk. Will we make lists of you ? We probably
should !

It's all a spectacle.
