A gun that is not heard

The stapler of the time of his, consumerism and postpiones burned another scraper

A 122-mm M-30 model of 1938 was rolled onto the guard mountain in the center of Krasnoyarsk in the center of Krasnoyarsk. Now it is a signal gun, it will notify with its shot about the offensive of 12 o’clock in the afternoon; Remember, as it happened: “Half anniversary! Gentlemen drink and bite! " However, it is now inappropriate to recall the traditional joys of life. According to the city hall, a half-born shot is “the initiative of parents of graduates of the Military Engineering Institute of the Siberian Federal University, who performed combat missions in the zone of Svo”. From now on, the Krasnoyarsk tradition will have a new ideology: “In honor of all the defenders of the Fatherland-the Siberian division from among the Krasnoyarsk residents, which is now defending the interests of Russia, and those who have ever stood with weapons in their hands on the protection of their country.”

At the end of last week, the gun was tested with the mayor and the accumulation of the people. The tests were successful. The city hall called it as much as "three test volleys." But the city did not hear the gun. If you watch the video , I fight about the congratulation that you will review and listen: the report “Ready” and the “Shot” team sound louder than, in fact, a shot.

Well, this is the requirement of Rospotrebnadzor - for the gun to fit into SanPiN. According to the mayor's office, in order to reduce noise, they intentionally refused to use powder charges in favor of the Gazshuting system. The volume of gas supplied to the gun allows you to adjust the volume of the shot: less gas - quieter shot. I must admit that there is something in such a gas industry from Gazlaling: you begin to doubt if everything is in order with you, if the majority of the city, as they say, is for this midday shot, and you don’t understand why the signal gun that is not heard. Or:

Why even fade from a gun in the center of an unconscious city, who needs it? How can this imitation action be correlated with the real “combat missions in the zone of your own”?

The howitzer of the times of her and posteronia. Silent artillery - everything for your convenience. Embodied Oxymoron, materialized. Others die far, and here - patriotism with comfort, his own and aesthetics of philistinism, necromancy and SanPiN, Bosch and Boss, Goya and Goyda. Two in one: “combat missions in the zone” and insatiable consumerism. And ours and yours. The brilliant start of gasification of the Krasnoyarsk Territory.

Sufflers for artillery and tank trunks, in principle, are invented. There are technologies and products. But this does not find application, because it looks like a perversion of something initial. The sound of the shot serves to intimidate the enemy, the sound of a shot for the one who produces it confirms its strength and power, and the instincts of self -preservation are triggered in humanity, it refuses to hide and hide what can destroy it, humanity does not go to embellish and lead the formidable guns of mass killings and destruction to the philistine ideals. Foam and plush - separately, rockets, guns, tanks - separately.

The history of the howitzer on the guard of mountain is indicative: it reflects all the stages of the latest history of Russia. The tie-in the 90s, in the curiosity of the Krasnoyarsk mayor Peter Pimashkov. From his and his retinue of long trips and viewing the then TV, he brought a lot of borrowings to the city on the Yenisei: almost two hundred fountains and palm trees in tubs on the streets (for the winter they were cleaned in heated greenhouses, now in the shopping center), statues of Apollo and other characters, as if in the antique spirit, stone lions, as in Italy or St. Carnival for the City Day like Brazilsky. And the extension to the city hall is Big-Ben. That's right. And the triumphal arch is not clear in honor of which triumph. And this midday cannon shot is the tradition of washed by waves of St. Petersburg, Kronstadt, Sevastopol, Vladivostok, originating in the need for reconciliation of ship hours. This is in the most land, the most earthly on the planet of a millionaire city, most remote from the seas and oceans. Why not? There was also a style in this eclectic, and there was such a time. At the end of this time, in 2001, the howitzer was rolled onto the guard mountain, and she began to fade at noon next to the Paraskeva Friday chapel (the Russians know this chapel on paper chervonets).

Further-the new era, 2014. Fontanych (as Peter Ivanovich called) is no longer the mayor. They sued the gun: it suddenly found that the midday shot scares children and dogs, signals at the cars were triggered from it, and howls are rising in the city center (indeed, sometimes triggered, sometimes rose). I must say that the 14th year was prepared in the 11th and 12th, then the whole bright and loud began to pacify and freeze, and the level of the tilt of the barrel was changed by 35 degrees, declining volume. With which they still put up yesterday, it suddenly became unbearable. And the gun was really convicted that it was too loud. Naturally: the requirement of Rospotrebnadzor, so that the howitzer shoots quieter, in a whisper, corresponding to hygiene standards, satisfied.

The administration appealed the decision,

For several years, a discussion flowed sluggishly, how loud it is to be a howitzer. Examinations were going on. Residents of remote areas also threatened to file a lawsuit so that the gun was firing at all power, otherwise they could not hear.

And even then, some deputies of the City Council advocated the appeal of the verdict, saying that cannon shots are very important for “educating patriotism”. This then an inconspicuous argument will shoot now. But before, in December 2019, after 19 years of serviceable firing at noon, the howitzer from the main city mountain was removed at all. Citizens were announced: maintenance, repair is required. And in general ... that is, it is good - the city concluded. Before that, in the summer, artillery arsenals in Kamenka near Achinsky (in the west of the Krasnoyarsk Territory) burned and exploded epic . And the charges, as it turned out, is no more. And the military tightened safety requirements. And in general.

For four years, the city once lived without a gun. And now - a new era, he. The argument about patriotism caused by a cannon shot was reinforced with new myth-making-something like a pumpkin Savior. It was worth the vice-mayor to recall that the Cossacks dragged the gun to the mountain-to protect the city, as the pro-government media developed this before the story of such a tradition of the beginning of the 17th century at the founding of the prison of the Red Yar-to shoot from the mountains of guns at noon.

Well, then they completely put the limit of any controversy: such is the will of returning from his. And now the gun will shoot with a new ideological message.

The gun, which is not heard, logically complemented the flag, which is not visible : at the very end of last year, the Governor of the USS (now he was the senator and the appearance of a gun on the mountain announced one of the first): at the highest point in Krasnoyarsk (Nikolaev hill) the highest flaglet in the country was installed and a huge, 33 x 22 meters and 84 kg, the flag of Russia was raised. "Our tricolor will be visible almost from everywhere - both day and night." The thing, however, is that the flagpole was not the highest, and the flag immediately broke with the winds, which was then repeated many times, and it was far from everywhere, but in a could, ordinary for the city, the flag is not visible almost out of nowhere. Therefore, it is often seen to the middle of the flagpole - such a permanent mourning. Hybrid. Well, yes, what to have fun. Or the flag completely disappears, as, for example, now - for several days.

The largest kokoshnik in Russia was manufactured in a neuropsychiatric boarding school near Volgograd: to get into one of the many books of Russia's records, patients and employees trampled a month and a half.

And Krasnoyarsk received a diploma for the highest flagste; The certificate, which is certified, solemnly handed the governor.

Before players with statevas for decades, we trained on New Year's Christmas trees, increasing their iron frames consistently higher than all. Even if somewhere higher (longer or larger), Krasnoyarsk officials were announced anyway (this is for domestic consumption, who will check) that we have the largest. The largest. Then they put a cross on the Drokinskaya grief. 47 meters. Of course, 9 meters above the most famous cross - the son of a human with outstretched hands on Mount Korkovado in Rio. After a little thought, they removed the long-standing inscription “Russia” from under the cross, since the cross, conceived as a worship, looked on a low slide signed as “Russia”, a grave cross.

The story about the gun with a delightful barrel is probably also connected with the same old complexes about the size of the size (who would argue). But where is the logic? All the largest, and the gun is inaudible?! The commentary of one of the Krasnoyarsk resources on the local resource Newslab.ru: “Both the summer is shit, and there is no winter, and the gun does not shoot, but Bzdykays ... the king is fake, Marshal Plywood, digital money. Why lie everywhere. The shot should be real. This is the point. Ordinary powder shot. "

But you can again submit another application to any of the books of Russian records, well. In the nomination "The Silent gun." And to remake the previous record to the "most invisible state flag."
