I
love these women. Seconds after their release, they
condemned Putin. I mean, they didn't even take a deep breath first. They were
ready.
Maria Alyokhina and Nadezhda Tolokonnikova, members of Russian punk band Pussy Riot, were released from jail Monday under an amnesty allowing their early release from two-year sentences for a protest in a church against President Vladimir Putin.
Tolokonnikova shouted "Russia without Putin" after she was freed from a facility in the Siberian city of Krasnoyarsk.
Alyokhina was released from a different jail hours earlier and
dismissed the amnesty move. "I do not think it is a humanitarian act,"
she said to Russian Internet and TV channel Dozhd. "I think it is a PR
stunt."
Seriously, these two women are stellar human beings. May they live forever and bring positive change to the pig sty we refer to as "Russia".
