How about a protest that at times turned violent?

Well I would be interested in the wheres and hows sure.

Zmiinyi defenders: "Russian warship, go fuck yourself."

Smartass.

Sometimes.

But not this time. I am honestly curious how this protest/riot whatever went down.

No passport, WTF?

Never needed to go anywhere.

And the back up plan if you needed to suddenly go somewhere? Wait 6-8 weeks for processing?
Hit the woods where no one will find him?  That is my plan anyway.   :ph34r:

I just don't know if I'll survive 48hrs without internet.
I don't do meditation.  I drink alcohol to relax, like normal people.

there are different degrees of violence

Sure. But a violent riot conjures up very different imagery than sporadic vandalism.

sure, and the news reports don't have to use harsh language, but that's what happens -- things get overblown.
