Dec 10, 2011 05:13

So I've been on a free, educational excursion to Police Stations and Courts of Saint Petersburg courtesy of the Government of Russian Federation. Bench and breakfast included.

How it happened.

I have a mixed feeling about this. On one hand, you're very brave. On the other, the only possible way of resolving the tension is a revolution, and the revolution won't make anything any better. It's really a check-mate situation people are in now.

I know. I have mixed feelings, too. There is no right course of action here.
I'll wait for tomorrow morning to talk to my father about all this.

If anything he has a real experience of dealing with difficult political situations like in 1991-1993...

Oh, honey, it sounds awful! You are so brave for standing up to the evil party leaders!

I'm glad the police officers were nice, at least - it definitely could have been worse.

I didn't know your dad was in politics - it sounds like you have an expert to consult :D

I'm worried about you. Be careful, bb! <3

Aww, sweetie, thank you so much for your support!!

I'll try! I'll post something tomorrow if I have a chance.

If I won't post anything for more than a week though... Um... Well... I think you'll find out from the news and make the connections...

I love you very very much, bb! ♥ *HUGS*

Thank you, bb! <3

It's 7 a.m. here already. (Damn, I haven't even noticed that the night is over already until now)
The whole shit begins in eight hours from now. Ends - idk.

Thank you for your support! It means a lot. <3

Thanks for the update!

I worry about you and don't think I would have the courage to do what you are doing.

The way your legal system works sounds really frightening.

Take care of yourself sweetie.

Oh, thank you, sweetheart! ♥

Yeah... Our legal system sucks major ass. That's for sure.

I'll try to stay safe. Thank you, bb!! I love you! I love you so very much!!

I've been waiting anxiously for an update. I'll be keeping my fingers crossed for you. I hope the situation gets better soon, as more and more people join the dissension. It's heartening that some people in authority, like the local police, are on your side.

I can't believe that neither you nor a representative was present at the trials. That's disgusting.

Post as soon as you can. I'm checking out the news reports online but even online sites aren't faring too well against the government sanctions. Stay safe, bb. I worry about you.

Thank you so much, bb!

The whole thing starts in an hour. One of my best friends has just texted me and strictly forbidden me to go. He hasn't explained why but he has said it's VERY important.
He's going though. I'm worried. Also I can't reach my father's phone. O_O

I'm still not sure if I'm going. It's all just crazy.

Thank you for supporting me, bb! I love you!! ♥

I would not think any less of you if you didn't go after such a warning. You've already been arrested once. I also understand that you still do want to go and join the others in protest. Whatever happens, I'll be watching for news and keeping you in my thoughts. I love you :D Stay safe.

Thank you! ♥

I've just - finally - reached my father. He's going. And all of his friends, too. Though he's cautioned me about getting caught for the second time... I think I'll go hang out somewhere nearby for a start. Carefully.

I can run reeeaaally fast if I want to so I'll try not to get in trouble this time!

I'll post something when I'm back!

Thank you for all your support and kind words! Thank you so much! ♥
