Russian entrepreneur offers $1 million bounty on Putin
American Military News ^ | 3/2/22 | Ryan Morgan

Posted on 03/03/2022 9:17:04 AM PST by Roman_War_Criminal

On Wednesday, a Russian-born banker and entrepreneur posted on the social networking website LinkedIn offering a $1 million bounty to arrest Russian President Vladimir Putin for war crimes.

In a post that’s no longer viewable on LinkedIn, Alexander Konanykhin said, “I promise to pay $1,000,000 to the officer(s) who, complying with their constitutional duty, arrest(s) Putin as a war criminal under Russian and international laws.”

“Putin is not the Russian president as he came to power as the result of a special operation of blowing up apartment buildings in Russia, then violated the Constitution by eliminating free elections and murdering his opponents,” Konanykhin added in his post. “As an ethnic Russian and a Russia citizen, I see it as my moral duty to facilitate the denazification of Russia. I will continue my assistance to Ukraine in its heroic efforts to withstand the onslaught of Putin’s Orda.”

I’m concerned about the precedent it sets, both on the international stage and even in private life.

What about when somebody gets the idea to put a hit out on Trump? Or DeSantis? Or Mike Lindell? Or anyone else the Left doesn’t like?

If you’re too stupid to understand why setting this precedent might be a problem, then we really don’t have anything to really discuss because you’re obviously too low IQ to understand much of anything.

I wouldn’t get too excited. If this is “ok” because it’s Putin, and seizing any thing that looks like a Russian asset in the US is “ok” because it’s Putin...soon the Leftards will have all the precedent they need to do the same to bad orange man war criminal 6 Jan nogoodnik.

Putin likely tried to kill this guy and failed. Now it’s payback time...a fine Russian tradition!

Also, US$1M is a heckuva lot of rubles right now!

Talk about stupid.. just damn. Apparently your simple, virtue-signaling “mind” can’t discern between a megalomaniacal, hegemonic dictator who sent his legions to pillage, plunder and annex a neighboring country and Trump, DeSantis and Lindell.

Now go away… I’m done with you.

That buys him safety from having his assets seized.

Putin is targeting Ukraine cities and Ukraine infrastructure and innocent civilians and the president of Ukraine.

In war, retaliation is part of the actions. Perhaps Russian targets, including their cities and civilians and Putin himself, would be more than fair.

That's exactly it.

What the boomercons here on FR need to understand is that to the Left there is no functional difference between Vladimir Putin and YOU. Everything they are doing to Russian oligarchs, they'd love to do to each one of us if they had what they felt was a viable justification. Freepers can sit here and fling poop around like hoot monkeys about Ukraine all they like, but at the end of the day, the Left wants you dead and your kids or grandkids turned into trannies. No amount of support for stupid stuff like assassinating heads of state or cutting off Russian cancer patients from treatment is going to ingratiate you to them.

Yeah, maybe. But we know for a fact his functioning brain cells are at the Kamala or Joe level.

Because this is Free Republic

It’s like Nicholson said of women

Remove logic and reason

And consistency

Just run with it man ....Freepers live for a reason to foam and shout and roar

And seek mutual attaboys and attagirls

And by God Pootie has sure given it to them hasn’t he ....on a silver tray....with swizzle sticks ...

The Sound and the Fury......Faulkner

What a great title

Man back in the Howlin years here this stuff would get crazy .....the chorus for zots over not going along with the crowd

Like not supporting Bush pathway to citizenship

Her and Sinkspur and Dane would blast the shofar and the thread Cossacks would come a running hammering the admin mod to fire up some kitties

This is nothing like that....not enough of them now

I’ve been here 22 years I’m not perfect either for the record
