Gary Kasparov Arrested
Sort:
redspruce, I heard that you guys don't get much of a salary. Maybe you should move to the West to avoid all of Russia collapsing on your neck?

Yes. I have almost everything he's written. Recently, I acquired the second volume of his biography by William H. Patterson Jr. Haven't read them yet.
My favorite is TMiaHM, closely followed by SiaSL. I owe the man quite alot. From a very young age, he taught me to question every sacred cow in the book — from politics, to the military to sex. Unfortunatly, he rarely gets the credit he deserves.
Nice to meet you,
Lou
You also.

Yes but now Capablanca has just beaten Lasker to win the title back.
It should be remembered that Capablanca did this before Castro muzzled Cuba, and yet it seems it just happened. Talk about the space-time continuum...
Senior your map is old.
But morally correct. Putin has betrayed the Russian people. Things will get worse and worse for them until Russia leaves the Ukraine,including Crimea. So it is written,so it shall be.
Sure.
Shame about the Russians: they drink like fish, their women are hot, and they're awesome at chess. Now if they could just figure out the politics thing, I might move there.

Lou

Sorry for playing (poor) devil's advocate, but I've always thought Gary's kinda cute and handsome. ^-^
More on the issue at hand, I only read the first page of this thread and skimmed the last, and I'm not really so sure what Gary's actually guilty of; or if this is just a frivolous free-for-all bashing session against him for what petty reason have y'all. What was this "hoolaganism" that we so speak? As far as I'm concerned (after a very quick google search), he was only arrested once in 2012 for defending 3 punk band members, and even that seems possibly unjustified.
It's clearly a case of Putin murdering another one of his rivals. Then the pro-Putin monstrosities try to blame it on another Putin adversary.

Kaspy has been speaking truth to power for some time now. There's nothing wrong with him.
Russia is a strange place.
