Protesters in Russia clash over military action in Crimea

Demonstrators Against War in Ukraine Arrested
http://www.interpretermag.com/russia-this-week-demonstrators-against-war-in-ukraine-arrested/

Since war is something you want to avoid, clearly you should be cheering on these anti-war protesters as well -- Isn't that right??
Aren't you outraged these people were arrested for daring to protest a military action? Or are you still of the mindset that Russia has been 100% above board all this time, and that the U.S. are still the bad guys?? Last I checked, NATO forces haven't fired a round or "accidentally" shot down a civilian jetliner during this conflict...The Russian Army on the other hand...

Maybe Skinner needs to create some pro-Russian subforum and stick you in it...
