Astrakhan victory
So it happened. An unprecedented number of caring people went to the streets today. There were wrong skeptics that reproached the Astrakhan, that they were not ready not in the word, but to support Oleg Shein, who has been starving along with his associates and standing to the end for the truth. When, from all regions this week, hundreds of worthy citizens stretched to the glorious city on the Volga, local residents realized that all of Russia for them.
On April 14, 2012, Astrakhan clearly demonstrated: she is not Khazaria! And no matter how the repaid propagandists, dirty provocateurs, soldered separatists and just scum were torn - they could not break the will of free people. They failed to restrain the popular anger, from which the crooks and thieves had to hide behind the police, knocking their teeth with horror in the curtains that do not belong to them.
Today, true Astrakhanovs clearly conveyed to illegitimate power: this is our city! And only to us - not to falsifiers - to decide who will be the mayor there. It should - and therefore, we will! - To decide, not criminals, brazenly and businesslike voices in our country, openly mocking the people, with the Jesuit grin, advising the protesters to appeal to the courts controlled by them.

The importance of the moral victory, won today by our compatriots in Astrakhan, cannot be overestimated. She demonstrates with all possible clarity: the mass protest is not at all exhausted, and the majority of the country's population - which, of course, does not support the current government - has not gone away. It is still ready to fight for its rights. And therefore, the time of the regions has come to show that they can also explain to the crooks and thieves where their place is how hundreds of thousands of people did in Moscow in December -February. 
At first, in Yaroslavl, the local unicorn was not allowed to power united efforts, which was devastated exclusively thanks to the coordinated work of all opposition forces, regardless of ideological disagreements and prejudices. Now, in Astrakhan, it was possible to raise the city to resist the bandits, who had long been assertion that they were the runs of fate. 
That is how it all began in 1611, when Kuzma Minin turned to the Nizhny Novgorod:
“ The great thing! We will commit it if God helps. And what praise will all of us from the Russian land, that such a great business will come from such a small city as ours: I know, only we will move for it, so many cities will pester us ... ”
Today in Astrakhan, Alexei Navalny and Oleg Shein turned to the people, and the police for the first time in the recent history of Russia used tear gas against demonstrators. People who call themselves “power” decided to prevent the townspeople on Kirov Square - but only made worse for themselves, because in the end the crowd occupied the central square, and the angry people were ready to break the cordon. But the police officially stated that she closed the area for sanitary treatment after the United Russia ralled there, which caused approving exclamations.
It was confirmed - the intensity in the city was always strong, just people did not go to rallies, were not used to it. But now, after they shared their experience with how to defend their rights - they will no longer allow them to be shamelessly wiped about them. Ordinary passers -by simply joined the crowd that walked around the city - and not even to take power (since they are power), but in order to demonstrate the universal solidarity and express their attitude to those whom they did not choose.
Today there was a moral fracture. Surrealistic messages of official news agencies and television channels , which in the city protected only 300-350 people-unlike the morning action in the number of allegedly 5,000 driven state employees in support of the United Russia “mayor”, caused only laughter-and confirmed the obvious superiority of the truth over the false state propaganda.
It is at such moments of truth that it becomes clear who is worth it. During the Astrakhan confrontation, each paid bastard, mocking the starving and dying people, stirring cartoons on them, participating in the persecution of the opposition, and placing custom -made articles in the media and blogosphere, had the opportunity to demonstrate that he was scum. And every sane person who has the opportunity to simply look at the behavior of such supporters of the authorities could freely verify this.
And we were convinced.
Today, the most perspicacious curators of domestic policy should have become clear - they are doomed. And the question of their collapse is only a matter of time.
And April 14, perhaps, should be Astrakhan Day.
