'Notorious Aussie Cossack' issued with arrest warrant. Simeon Boikov failed to turn up to court over assault charge-- pushing over an old man. The Pro-Russia commentator sought refuge in Russian consulate.

What a jerk. How the Australians will pry him loose from the Russian Consulate will be challenging. Perhaps a prisoner or spy swap.
And he's an anti-vaxxer.

(14,174 posts)What a paranoid moron. Has even whipped up his own anti-government hysteria to the point that he fears what will happen to him if he goes to court to face a misdemeanour assault charge. He'd probably just get a slap on the wrist, a small fine maybe.

Justice matters.

(510 posts)If an imbecile is pro-gun, he's going to be pro-death penalty, anti-vax, against environmental safety. On the other hand, if a person is anti-gun, the person will be for women's rights, pro-vax, and wants to stop global warming.
Talking points vs. Independent, compassionate thought
Lemmings vs Cats.
Cults vs. Intellectuals.
And yes, let him rot like Assange over an assault charge. This Cossack Cretin is not worth a prisoner exchange for Putin.

(510 posts)Putin hijacked Cossack tradition/history and uses them as agents of his regime.
The Cossacks enforced Draconian laws for him at the Sochi Olympics years ago. See link at bottom please.
Putin did something similar with the Chechens-- hence there are two opposite Chechen movements-- facing each other in the Ukraine.

Our authorities don't need to do anything. Either Russia can take him, or he can emerge from the consulate and face justice. Personally I hope Russia takes him and uses him as cannon fodder in Ukraine.
