Pussy Riot horse whipped, pepper sprayed by police in Sochi and attacked in a McDonalds

Russian punk group Pussy Riot is attacked by Cossack militia as they try to perform under a sign for the Sochi Olympics.

Cossack militia attacked the Pussy Riot punk group with horsewhips on Wednesday as the group staged an impromptu performance under a sign advertising the Sochi Olympics.
Six group members — five women and one man — donned their signature ski masks and were pulling out a guitar and microphone when at least 10 Cossacks and other security officials moved in.

One guard appeared to use pepper spray, another whipped several group members while others ripped off their masks and threw the guitar in a rubbish bin.

Police arrived and questioned witnesses, but no one was arrested.

"No one was arrested" even though the attack on Pussy Riot violates Federal law adopted by the Duma "ensuring the implementation of the Constitution of the Russian Federation established the rights of Russian citizens to assemble peacefully without arms, hold meetings, rallies, demonstrations, marches and pickets."



Then in March Putin's murderers attacked Maria and Nadia while they were eating in a McDonald's after visiting prisoners in the stalag they were jailed in. Western soldiers, take a good look at the thugs attacking these woman. Its a very good possibility the next place you see them will be on the battlefield. Be ready.

Pacific Justice Institute (PJI) designated a hate group by the Southern Poverty Law Center

The Southern Poverty Law Center has decreed The Pacific Justice Institute (PJI) a hate group.

The lawyer group that failed to undo California marriage equality and transgender student fairness laws, costing taxpayers millions defending their citizens have earned a just(ice) reward for their efforts.

The petition drive to force a public vote on transgender student's rights as unconscionable is it was, wasn't what earned them the lowest of designations.

Although the PJI was largely responsible for soliciting money to fund the professional signature gathers, that wasn't the reason for their new moniker. Nether was it unto it self the fear mongering by the signature gathers who prodded Californians into unwittingly endorse the petition.

PJI's tactics as despicable as they were, probably wouldn't have spurred the SPLC to action, it was what the PJI did outside of California that rendered them a hate group.

The PJI unable to find a single instance where a transgender student violated personal space inside the state found a vulnerable transgender student in Colorado to target. Armed with fictional 'proof' the PJI unmercifully hounded the girl until she was near suicide.



The PJI discredited by Cristan William's fact checking didn't admit lying instead proceeded to use a wider bigot's brush and continued to attack this child.

Cristan Williams has documented her magnificent part in #JD4PJI: The downfall of the Pacific Justice Institute and the sweet victory of trans youth at the TransAdvocate.

That's why the PJI is rightfully denoted as an active hate group by the Southern Poverty Law Center.

This grass roots defense of California transgender students by the trans community and our allies is a major victory. We didn't ask for this fight, but let it be known, if you want to do battle, we are ready.
