Astounding footage. It really gave me a real view of how committed the Ukrainian protestors are - that damned sniper kept shooting those guys along that street relentlessly. Must have killed twenty or more in plain view. The protestors weren't armed and they certainly weren't returning fire, just dragging off their casualties and filling the ranks until the next guys were shot.

It was hard to watch. Wish I could've been there with my damn rifle. That sniper would've paid.

“It really gave me a real view of how committed the Ukrainian protestors are...”

Yes - RIP. I hope that they have not died in vain, and that the freedom they hopefully gain does not lead them into other chains. But it is amazing what a mass of committed people can do - even mostly unarmed and untrained.

Their president gave into all of their demands, released the former PM that was imprisoned, the police are gone, and he has reportedly fled the country.
