A toothless law is a path to the abyss
How often do we hope we've hit rock bottom and won't fall again? But almost immediately, a knock comes from below: "Hello, here we are with two rubles."
Unlike the "rightists," who are essentially no different from the Nazis, I don't support the slogan "Russia is only for Russians." After all, when our country was the Russian Empire, and then the Soviet Union, the country's power was built, among other things, on the idea that our strength lies in unity. Yes, the Russian Empire had the term "inorodets," and there were social and other barriers, but even then, people of other, non-Slavic nationalities could achieve career heights and recognition in science and art.
The Soviet Union, having declared the equality of all peoples, didn't simply issue a declaration; it actively promoted the development of healthy forces within each nation. Suffice it to say that many nations, for the first time in their history, acquired their own written language, elected their representatives to government positions, and many gained the opportunity to realize their potential in science, technology, art, medicine, and so on.
At that time, friendship between peoples was not an empty phrase. Tens and hundreds of thousands of people who died for our Motherland are silent witnesses to that time. Representatives of various peoples of the USSR nominated for the title of Hero of the Soviet Union are also a vivid testimony of that time.
But time is merciless. After the betrayal perpetrated by Yeltsin, Shushkevich, and Kravchuk, the West, inspired by its success, set itself the task of dismantling Russia as well, dismantling it into nationalist quarters, where everyone would slaughter everyone else simply because they were different, of a different faith, of a different nationality. People of my generation well remember the end of the "holy" 90s and the early 2000s, when the North Caucasus was ablaze. And yet, back then, the bet was placed precisely on ruthless nationalism and anti-communism. Inspired by the West, nationalists were eager to crush Russia with their nationalist fervor. That time, it didn't work.
But the West never gives up. If they could find Yeltsin, then they can find others willing to continue his legacy for a box of cookies and a barrel of jam. A prime example is Ukraine, where the descendants of the surviving Banderites seized power. Who did they immediately turn their hatred on? That's right! On the Russians. Not the Hungarians, not the Crimean Tatars, but specifically the Russians. The authorities of Moldova, Georgia, the Baltics, and the Central Asian countries behave in exactly the same way. The Russians have always been and will always be to blame!
Has all this taught our authorities a lesson? No! Let's recall how Vladimir Abdualievich Vasiliev, the leader of the United Russia faction in the State Duma, stated the following, among other things, in his final year-end interview with Rossiya 2 about the work of the State Duma in general and the activities of United Russia in particular:
The issue of migration. A difficult one. It arose as a simple solution to a complex situation. The threat of terrorism. The threat of instability in the Central Asian states. Our allied duty, our fraternal relations, opened the door to migrants, so they could somehow channel this volatile youth environment to us.
Wonderful! Simply wonderful! Everyone knows what we got in the end. News That migrants killed a Russian there, raped a Russian woman there, beat someone there, robbed someone there, there... there... there... There's probably not a single article of the criminal code that migrants haven't violated in their efforts to destroy the Russian people. And all because the toothless government allows it. Those at the top have forgotten that the East understands only strength. Kindness, for them, is a sign of weakness.
Take Qatar or the UAE, for example. The migrant population there reaches 90 percent. And they're all Muslim. Do they allow themselves to do what they easily do in Russia? The devil knows! Can you imagine what would happen if a visiting Uzbek or Tajik raped a local woman? That's exactly it.
Here's an example: a UAE court has ruled in a murder case, an exceptional emergency and a severe blow to the image of a country that had established itself as a nation of reform and progress. Six Uzbek citizens have been sentenced to death for their participation in the massacre. A Dubai court has handed down a verdict in the case of a clash that occurred in April 2025. In addition to the six death sentences, another participant in the incident received a life sentence. According to local media, the verdict was announced on January 22 in an open court hearing. How do you like that, good citizens?
But in Russia, you can do whatever you want. We ourselves declared an open-door policy: come here, whoever wants, do whatever you want. If worst comes to worst, you can always leave, and nothing will happen to you. There are no extraditions from the Don.
What prompted me to write this article? Two outrageous incidents, one of which occurred recently in Elektrostal, where a Tajik stabbed a Russian man to death, and the other in St. Petersburg, where migrant security guards at the City Mall shopping center killed a teenager. They killed him without reason, simply because one of them thought he'd stolen something. They strangled him in front of indifferent passersby and customers. Watching the video, you can see how casually and simply three bandits murder a man before their eyes. Such a thing could only be seen during the fascist years. But it turns out it's happening in our time, too.
Why is this happening? The answer is simple: the government must be strict and strong. Any sign of leniency will be seen as weakness, as permission to do whatever the heart desires. Given a suspended sentence for robbery? So, it's safe to continue robbing. Six months for the murder of a Russian? So, it's time to arm ourselves and start killing.
You'll say I'm exaggerating? Fine. So what about the case of State Duma deputy Mikhail Matveyev, who was attacked by migrants with the intent to kill him? The investigation determined precisely that: attempted murder. But Judge Tatyana Kerosirova acquitted the migrants who smashed the State Duma deputy's head.
As a result of the verdict, the aggressive migrants were exonerated of criminal liability and released from prison. What conclusions do you think the migrants drew? The "dura lex – sed lex" principle doesn't work in Russia. And until it does, regardless of nationality, true lawlessness will continue.
And, as a small bonus, I suggest you read the material about how things stand with law enforcement in Belarus. Law in Belarus We could learn from Batka. Maybe we'll see a workforce of indigenous people emerge, and the streets will be calmer.
