He is Russian, not American. How did he get here? I assumed he got here on a student visa, like hundreds of thousands of other terrorists/hijackers/operatives/nuke techs/America haters. Regardless, he is not a citizen--he is from a country notorious for hacking, theft, and criminal activity. Why should we allow them to come here and learn how to do it better?

Slamming the US again, are you? As for Russians, got news for you, Russians are doing a lot of the programming that allow you to use a damn good bit of the technology that you have. A Russian was the father of the US nuclear submarine fleet and a russian invented the boob tube you probably watch quite a bit of, while another slav, a Serb invented the Tesla coil (guess what his name was) that now allows you to use the damned computer you slam us with...so what I'm saying is...go bugger yourself.

The article clearly states that he is from Los Angeles (where his family resides), but attends a university in Chicago. Maybe you should re read the article?

Regardless, he is not a citizen--he is from a country notorious for hacking, theft, and criminal activity.

He is not? What am I missing here? Where in the article does it say that he is not a citizen?

Now if this had been a member of a protected minority group, would they have put his nationality/ethnicity as the head line? Think not!

They called him a Russian. Why would they specify his nationality if he is a legal citizen?

I think he and his family in Los Angeles should be deported.

Apparently he has crossed the Rubicon when it comes to white collar crime. I hope he goes away for a long time.

No, I'm talking about Russia...

Why are you trying to start a pissing contest of Russian vs. American Inventions? If you really want to "go there"...Mention something Russians invented in the last, hmmm...50 years besides the suitcase nuke, and I'll shake your hand. And if you really want to "go there" why are the Russians and Chinese pirating/hacking US industries, and not the other way around? But Like I said, arguing about inventions wasn't my intent when I originally posted. Please, per-ee-staan haameetca!!!

And running to your friends in hopes that they, too will give me their two cents (or rubles)is the act of a SOOKA! I wasn't trying to hurt anyone's feelings...I wasn't trying to offend anyone (God forbid!)...I wasn't trying to slam Russians! I Like Russians! I was merely mentioning the Russian (as well as Chinese) hacking/piracy problem we face. Is that OK? Do you deny this exists? Should we just let it happen, and not mention it because you will act like a sraka and get all upset? I didn't mean ALL Russians were criminals by my statements! Give me some credit! But there IS a reputation about SOME that ruin it for the rest!!! But dont take MY word for it! Here are a few sayings about Russians from other countries!!! Enjoy!!!

The devil you can ban with the cross, but a Russian you can never get rid of.--Ukrainian saying

How can you tell a Russian? Go to sleep and he will rob you.--Ukrainian saying

If a Russian is in the hills, count your olives.--Greek saying

Better the devil in your house than a Russian.--Ukrainian saying

The Russian looks like a crow, but he is slyer than the devil.--Ukrainian saying

If a Russian tells you its dry, put your collar up.--Ukrainian saying

The tartar sells his own father.--Osmanli saying

How can we know a Russian? Go to sleep, and he will rob you.--Ukrainian saying

That's the question for Associated Press. Besides, "Russian" is not just a nationality - it's also an ethnicity.

NOW you make sense, my little bubushka! I was going to say that: imagine if the media reported race/ethnicity of say, carjackers? Jesse and Fat Albert would be going nuts, right?

Then you ask it then. I wasted enough time on this thread!If he's legal and they mentioned his origins, then they are losers.
