Enough of the bullshit,,,,, if you want to live in Russia, start walking east, if you don't like the government in Ukraine and still love then protest. If you take up arms against it, then die.
Just read that Russia is suing McDonalds for too much fat in the food. My girl drives me crazy when she eats fat as a main coarse,,,fried fat. That and McDonalds has closed it's franchises in Yalta Simferopol and Sevastopol it is tit for tat. It is as comical and unfocused as western sanctions.

Some of you may remember "stoptheinsanity", a "person" on this site who made some posts regurgitating Kremlin lies over the period of a week or so. Never posted before... never since... never anything about dating. Quite likely, a paid apparatchik.
