This is one of the opportunities where I do not know if I should laugh out loud, or feel pity. Something must go terribly wrong in a man's life, I think, that he believes something like this, and acts like this. That, or a great existential fear has taken command of his mind and heart.

It is hilarious and tragic at the same time. At least that's how I think I see them until I do not need to listen to them. If that would happen, I assume that any remaining sympathy immediately would move towards zero.

What to do? If there are children with them, get them out by any means, even at the risk of their parents. Concenring the adult rest, just make sure they can't hurt anybody outside their crazy club, and do not do any greater damage. If they want to sit in their black hole and eventually blow themselves up, okay with me. Just don't allow them to become media stars.

They may be ridiculous, or tragic - but nevertheless they are dangerous.

I still remember the cameraman interviewing Janet Reno who says: "We are not using excessive force." All the while an armored carrier with a "Door Knocker" starts punching holes into the walls of the compound.

It's not dull when you're sitting on barrels of gasoline that you're threatening to ignite

Knowing Russia's record on these things, I doubt they'll be going softly on these guys.

Whatever happens, I hope they keep those people alive until next May comes and goes.
