    Yeah, but we’re talking about a guy who had no problem gassing his own people to end a hostage standoff, so I’m guessing any dissent out there he’ll have no problem with putting down ruthlessly.

      They’ve already had one (aborted) attempt at insurrection, and gassing grieving widows makes for a lot of noise, too

        Exactly. It was aborted. And then the guy behind it was murdered. Putin doesn’t care if he kills his own people. He would either shoot/gas everyone protesting or send them all to the front lines.
