Shootings at Crocus City Hall in Moscow

[Horace]

I was surprised the terrorists escaped. Usually those sorts of attacks don't have an escape plan. Also surprised that they were motivated by money rather than martyrdom, if the stories above are true.

…if the stories above are true.

That is looking more and more like a big “if”.

@LuFins-Dad

Any international cries of support and solidarity with Russia?

None for Russia but plenty for the victims and their families. As it should be.

With zero amount of self-awareness, Hamas comments:

Also, one of the attackers wore a body cam. Yeah, there's video.

@Renauda see if this one works.

The four make their first “court” appearance looking a little rough for wear:

I LOL'ed before I even opened your link.

Yeah, something tells me that the Russian "justice" system will be less than charitable when dealing with these assholes.

ETA: Give 'em a fair trial and then hang them.

I don’t think we’re allowed to think authoritarianism has any positive aspects.

Thank you, citizen.

We look forward to our upcoming conversations.

There’s talk of bringing back the death penalty over this. Won’t be hanging though.

Sudden, explosive acute lead poisoning at the base of the skull is the method of choice. That is if the condemned survives what the guards and other inmates subject him to in lieu of a last meal.

[George K]

[Renauda]

Looks like he’s already had his last meal..

Yeah, having a suspect lose an eye during interrogation just screams 'due process'.

How will we ever know whether he is guilty or not if they beat him to death getting a confession?

[Renauda]

The due process afforded them was the offer that the beatings and torture would stop when they admitted they were reporting to and in the pay of the Ukrainians. That they would only admit truthfully that they were fanatic Muslims engaged in jihad and Tajik citizens was not what the boss wanted to hear so their dismal fates were summarily sealed.

I read that the guy who hacked the perp’s ear off is auctioning off the knife.

[Renauda]

It, the knife, will be a venerated holy relic someday.

[Copper]

The ear paired with fava beans is available at an additional cost.

Let the conspiracy theories begin continue:

[Renauda]

Putin admits Islamic jihadist fanatics undertook the attack but insists Washington and Kyiv were supporting the terrorist action:

He’s sticking with his own conspiracy theory script.

I think the OMON police dog enjoyed the ear without any garnishes or side dishes.
