If you’re on the same side of a human rights question as Vladimir Putin, it may be time for a little soul-searching.

Putin is a despot. Some of the love he gets on FR bothers me. But the article is interesting none the less.

[Conscience of a Conservative]

Agreed, he’s certainly a despot, and (contrary to some of the support he’s getting from some Freepers here) this story is an example of his despotism. A free nation responds to propaganda with truth, not speech codes.

Agreed.. I prefer to live in free society...
