That was a great save! The citizens of Belarus have been amazing. The pictures of people protesting, the endless stream of people is awe inspiring. Women, too. Old women fearlessly grabbing at the masks of these muscled up provocateurs looking for trouble and people to whack. It's a beautiful thing to see in a country where the individual risk is high.
They're showing us how it's done. Good trouble.
