Russia probes Columbine fascist link to three brutal school massacres
Daily Mail ^ | 20 Jan 2018 | Will Stewart in Moscow

Three separate bloodbaths at Russian schools recently are all linked by the alleged teenage attackers 'worshipping' the perpetrators of the Columbine massacre in the U.S. 18 years ago.

In the latest outrage on Friday, axe-wielding masked suspect Anton Bichivin, 16, wore a T-shirt linked to German band KMFDM as did sinister Columbine shooters Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold.

The shirt was visible as the blood-drenched Russian was detained in the snow by military police, and in an ambulance as he was rushed to hospital.

He and accomplice Alexander Rogalsky, 16, are believed to hold Nazi sympathies and gave themselves fascist names before staging the attack, law enforcement officers have revealed.

In an earlier horrific attack on Monday this week, nine pupils and 'hero' teacher Natalia Shagulina suffered knife wounds when two teenagers went on the rampage in a classroom in the Urals city of Perm.

One pupil, called Kristina, said of the suspect and his friends: 'They did not take drugs. They were into Nazism.'

Before the attack they renamed themselves on social media using names of obscure Russian fascists.

Four months ago a student Mikhail Pivnev, then 15, threw smoke bombs and struck teacher Lyubov Kalmykova, 39, with an axe at a school near Moscow. He too was an admirer of the Columbine shooters and had Nazi sympathies, law enforcement officers say.

Pinging from prior thread on school attacks in Russia. Just came across this article.

As per The Daily Mail:

- In the latest outrage in Russia, the axe-wielding masked suspect wore a T-shirt linked to German band KMFDM - as did the Columbine shooters

- Most of the Russian attackers had Nazi sympathies as did the Columbine pair

- It is feared that the Russian attackers were also motivated by the same extremist ideology as their Columbine counterparts

Dear pabianice,

Great point. Russia actually has a whole lot of fascinating internal woes going on - news of which will likely spill into the global spotlight in the coming years as Vladimir Putin takes on his fourth (and supposedly final) term in office next March. In the meantime, the US media is distracting us with fake Trump collusion stories.

I have a feeling the Ruskie authorities will not be as gentle and understanding with the perps as our culture. It would be just awful if the little boys committed suicide while in custody.

Because the Daily Mail writer's definition of the word "massacre" appears to include serious but wholly non-fatal attacks.

The Russian public is treating the event as massacres and it's stirring quite a discussion and a but of soul-searching about the state of Russian society as a whole. Sure, the acts were not instantaneously fatal, but pretty gruesome: Injuries from the acts range from amputated fingers to coma.

Dmitry Gudkov, who plans to run for Moscow mayor wrote the following indictment: (translated from Russian via yandex)

"The massacre at the school in Perm. The school near Chelyabinsk. At school in Buryatia. The student who brought a weapon to school in Moscow. All of this during the past week.

No, this does not mean that there is a sinister force that coordinates all of the attacks through social networks. It means more: all 20 years of the struggle for spirituality, from "information harmful to health and development of children", end like this.

Because in fact, the state fought not for children. It had been struggling against dissent (well, a little bit against children, but hurt them on the rebound).

Censoring the Internet is primarily subjected to political resources is common place. But now it grew up flowers, waiting for the berries. Because of the exciting fight not think the government forgot about the children we need to think not only in words. It is not enough to write a proper tutorial about floated the Crimea. They need an atmosphere of freedom, which alone can form the citizen. But if to strangle him, if lie every step of the way, what kind of education (and even more Patriotic) can we talk?

Actually, twerk videos from different schools, also fell on this week, only confirms that in the coffin of the country see your "spiritual bonds".

Just lies and deceit it is impossible to build a state, as a house cannot be built on sand instead of a Foundation. And even if you call sand concrete — nothing will change.

Russia fails on all fronts: the economy, foreign policy — now and education. How much will need to be recreated from scratch."

There was evidence that Dylan Kliebold was raped by one or more police officers previous to the Columbine massacre.

At least that was his story, and no one ever looked into that.
