    This is pretty standard for a politician to say. It's exactly what the Yanokovich government said to protesters in the Maidan (which occurred after a ban of all organized protests, which really incensed people and they had to repeal the ban).
    The Crimeans voted to join Russia. I saw the voting and I saw the ballots. So yeah, they did something. It's Russian soil now and it will be Russian soil forever. Unless Ukraine wants to declare war against Russia?
    If there's anyone left in Crimea that doesn't support it's country (Russia), they know where to find suitcases and the realtors in Ukraine will be very happy to sell them one of their bombed out houses. Oh, they will need life insurance too since the Ukrainian army kills anything that moves.
    It took years to build Rome so I never expected Crimea to be rebuilt overnight. But the Crimeans are strong, resourceful, and proud. I would never expect anything less from Russians... unfortunately, I have learned to expect a lot less from gay Americans...

    And yeah, politicians do say a lot of meaningless things. But no worries about the rights to protest. President Neanderthal of Ukraine will be very happy to send his tanks and attack helicopters to any protests in his country. They must sell a ton of life insurance there...

    After listening to President Schizoid of Ukraine and after seeing what's happened since he was elected:
    No, I don't believe they can achieve their goals in Donetsk (or anywhere else in Ukraine) without violence. And I don't believe that any protester in eastern Ukraine will be given amnesty. The new President of Ukraine is:

    1. A liar. Or schizophrenic.
    2. A coward. He refuses to talk to Putin unless the US and the EU are holding his hand.
    3. An ultra-nationalist. He claimed he wasn't but that was another lie.

    I would be lying if I said that I didn't believe in violence - sometimes it's the only solution. But I'm not a coward that hides behind a parliament, the US, and the EU. So maybe I should start my own country and annex to Russia...

    I had some issues about the vultures but they do look a lot like Obama, Kerry, McCain, and Ashton. So yeah. I've also started sharing my objections to the situation in Ukraine at western forums.



    EDIT. SPECIAL NOTE FOR VICE PRESIDENT BIDEN - Have fun trying to get gas from the Russians in southern Cyprus. Lol!

    Just out of curiosity, if you lived say in Montana, and your state was annexed by Canadians, would you prefer to become a true Canadian, or move out to another state?

    How did you possibly see this? Really, unless you were there, which I highly doubt, then you didn't see anything. And if you were there, I'd like to know how you did it.

    You know, sometimes (even most of the times) you don't need to see something to know that it exists. Just a quick heads up.
    I do not claim that my opinion is absolutely true.
    If you've spotted any mistake in my English, please, correct it. I want to be aware of any mistakes to efficiently eliminate them before they become a habit.

    I agree with you

    In the above case, he said he saw it. This would lead one to believe he was there, which I was calling into question.
