Putin’s got to attend to law and order.

Oh, wait, he IS law and order.

I had high hopes for both Putin and Russia but unfortunately it appears he is another Stalin or maybe Hitler.

He can be charismatic which can be used for good or bad. Sure looks like he is a baddie.

I too had hopes that Russia could one day be a Western nation, it is more and more clear that it’s a pipe dream.

The Russians love a taste of the whip. It’s in their nature.

"The “Putin is a strong leader” apologists will be here soon."

Shot dead in the street. Can't get much stronger leadership than that.

“it must off been some evil outsider.”

Might be closer to the truth than you think.
Russia’s Wolves have been known to intimidate and harass (and been accused of worse) Putin Opposition.

Imagine Bill Clinton having the Outlaw’s Motorcycle Gang as supporters and strongarms.
