The rioter who died, was stabbed to death by antoher rioter. Russian goverment sayd, that the death was related to police action, but Estonian goverment annuled those messages. Maybe should international media overlook russian media. There might be some unadequate info there. There is already some misinformation. Russian media says, like estonians would blow the statue up- it isnt so. Estonians are reburyng the fallen soldiers from the central of the city to the peaceful cemetary. Also do estonians move the statue to the cemetary. P.S. Russian hackers are attacking estonian goverments web-sites.

While I am not exactly supportive of the Estonian government's decision to move the statue, I am supportive of the Estonian government reaction towards typical Russian behavior. You cannot trust nationalist Russians (who spew shit like USSR was good, too bad Yeltsin fucked it up), the only way to deal with them is force. The fact that the only casualty in this riot happened due to Russians fighting between themselves only further underlines what approach needs to be taken towards them.

Until Russians start to respect the rights of foreigners in their own country and stop ignoring institutionalized racism, their complaints of so called 'mistreatment' (lets see how a Russian would feel if his/her 9 year old son/daughter was killed by a bunch of thugs who where let free by a court in the name of nationalism) should be ignored and treated as BS propaganda.

You all should be arrested by US Police as a potential terrorists, since you all are mail, alien and potentially can attack lawful citizens in their own country.
Russians who were born in Estonia are still considered alien with very limited rights, how about that people? Do you really care about racism and other human rights? Are any Afro-Americans reading this article? Hwo do you like phrase 'Russians are blacks of Europe'?

Hmmm...

STAN, dear, could you be so kind to repeat this phrase 'THE RUSSIANS ARE OFTEN REFEERRED TO AS THE 'BLACKS OF THE EAST'' in New York in a bar among afroamericans? Please, try, and then type here your report, my dear racist american citizen.

Stan, you should buy yourself a time machine and go back to the National-Socialist Germany, where you and your ideas of herren volk belongs. Not only you don't know nothing about Russians, but it seems you don't know nothing also about Estonia, the Baltic states and their populations. By the way, for those very racist Estonians I see here, your dear government is in big trouble in the EU. You treat a large proportion of your population like animals, don't complain they revolt after, and that you receive some sanctions from the EU. After, like 'New Europeans' you are, go ask help to your dear GWB.

I totally support Estonians. And I can understand their attitudes towards invaders, doesn't matter whether they were Russian imerial-communo-fashists or German nazi. My part of Ukraine had also dramatically suffered from those bastards, and, actually, much more from the first ones than from the second ones.
