Are You Willing To Get Arrested?

Garry Kasparov gave up being world chess champion to get arrested for "shouting antigovernment slogans." Any time you go to a protest, in Russia or the U.S., you run the risk of getting arrested.

During a break in a hearing at a central Moscow court on charges of shouting antigovernment slogans, according to Reuters, Mr. Kasparov said: “Today the regime showed its true colors, its true face. I believe this was a great victory for the opposition because people got through and the march happened.”

Anti-government slogans my butt!!

Kasparov's a big supporter of one of those oligarchs who ripped off the Russian people billions of dollars - then fled to Israel and London. They should rot in jail.

The only people who go to jail for speech is those whose speech is opposed to the official history of WW2 or the so-called Holocaust. Those are the people who go to jail in Europe - and soon in Ame4rica. Official history is an Orwellian concept that the Left imposes on societies it comes to dominate.
