Riot in Moscow vs Putin Puppet
March 3, 2008

Riot police arrested protesters on Monday who held an unauthorized rally against the election of Dmitry Medvedev in Moscow. Medvedev is a known protégé of President Vladimir Putin.
300 riot police wielding batons hauled protesters to their buses (see picture above) – as other protesters light flares while shouting: “Fascists! Fascists!” (see below). Protesters were clearly outnumbered in the clash as it only took a while before the police drove away with two busloads of detainees.
