Remember and learn from history: Punish Putin and his cronies, not all Russians

[Gunny]

Where the author appears to be going is further than I'm willing to. That said, the main point here is good, and I agree. I've seen some things done recently by some that are just stupid.

First and foremost: Why is it Ukranians fleeing Ukraine can cross the Southern US Border but Russians fleeing Russia cannot? Seems to me they're both fleeing the same damned fool with a gun.

Pouring Russian vodka down the drain :rolleyes: FYI, most vodka with Russian-sounding names is not Russian. Russia itself exports one major brand of vodka, and 1 or 2 lesser brands.

Wartime embargoes are just how it goes. Sucks to have a shitty leader. We of all people should understand THAT.

Have we learned nothing from locking up every Japanese-American after Pearl Harbor? Not every Russian is Putin. Given the free and fair election in Russia, he's probably not the majority's choice.

I agree with all, there is a special stupid though with pouring vodka out, Russian or not. It's already yours, YOU ARE POURING YOUR OWN MONEY LITERALLY DOWN THE DRAIN.

This sounds a bit more personal than just a loss of funds :laugh2:
