The way this thing is dragged out in Russia it might as well become a major Russian historical event,and one that would be probably studied by Russian school kids in the future. On the issue of governmental laws centering on free speech and the like. I guess in some cases for school kids that get their facts inaccurate from time to time, Pussy Riot may show up in their essays and term papers as the historical event of when the Nazis invaded Russia in WWII. That is, on some tests and term papers at least. Adolph Hitler and his Pussy Riot together sounds more interesting than what is going on in Russia today with some flippant actions by a rock band. The Red Army rolls if things get out of hand like the old days, whether that occurs seems unlikely---at least I don't think that is going to happen. THough the chess champion Kasparov is looking at five years in prison for assaulting a police officer and he was badly beaten by police in protests.
