"Sudden" "Cardiac" "Arrest". Putin didn't kill this guy, but isn't SCA typically younger people? He might've had a weak heart or something.

[QUOTE=Masterofstars;44270036]Can they be blamed? It's not like Putin isn't acting bat shit off the wall evil lately.[/QUOTE] Is there even a reason for Putin to kill this guy? I don't know anything about Russian politics, but it doesn't seem like he was some revolutionary pissing off Putin.

[QUOTE=ScoutKing;44269952]well most cardiac arrests are quite sudden.[/QUOTE] Could you hold my 3 o'clock meeting? Gonna have a CPR then planned defibrillation at 3:20

-this is probably dumb-

It's a bit silly to start saying that this guy was killed guys. Just because he said the obvious that Russia taking Crimea would cost the country billions means the secret services came and killed him? That wouldn't happen even during the USSR, I think
