I’m not impressed, and I’m a bit disappointed, that Ukraine would call tire-buring thugs in the middle of their beautiful city a legitimate way to get a new government.

You're more impressed with the thug president Yanukovich who is responsible for the shooting and killing of about 70 or more unnamed protestors?

You know something? If protestors behaved that way in DC, they'd be shot at. Actually, they'd be arrested way before that. During the bogus government shutdown, veterans were arrested for the crime of going to THEIR memorials.

And about the shooters? I'd need more information to be sure they weren't provocateurs. Besides which, there were some early reports of protestors shooting police during a truce.

No, your propaganda isn't working. Look at the world around you. Not one country is better off because the "peaceful protestors" got their way. If Ukranians didn't like their president, they should've done something about it next election. That's the whole point of democracy.

If a bunch of "protesters" stormed the White House what do you think would happen? Would the capitol police shoot them... in which case the world could declare that "Obama is shooting unarmed protesters".

There are two (or more) sides to every story.
