Very brave man.

What a bunch of fucking assholes. True censorship.
I guess it was a given that his work in the Ukraine got too annoying for some. Props to him for being there through all this.
Those comments are disgusting. It's bizzare how many people are willing to ignore the truth when it doesn't serve their ideology.
To be fair, there isn't a lot of proof on what actually happened out there. Not saying it didn't happen, it probably did cause Simon's a decent, truthful guy, but we should take his word just as we do with the government's, with a grain of salt, until we get some hard evidence from either side. Only one thing I can say with an amount of certainty from all this is that the Mayor's a fuckin' dick trying to redirect the conversation off of Simon, with a cocky smirk. That's just terrible politics and bad humanity there.
Yes, yes of course. The guys holding journalists against their will are the honest ones and their prisoners are all lying.
[QUOTE=Larikang;44689186]Yes, yes of course. The guys holding journalists against their will are the honest ones and their prisoners are all lying.[/QUOTE] Hey now, don't construe what I say. I said we should look at both with the same frame of mind until real proof or at least more witnesses come out and say the same thing. The whole "beaten but not enough to make a scar" thing is a bit up for speculation, and I think tangible proof would be more helpful in this situation. We've got the prosecution (the Mayor) and the defendant (Simon) saying two different things. Lets hold our butts before we start saying this or that, or else we'll just be the extreme YouTube commenters, just on the other side. (for the sake of this conversation, i think Simon [b]is[/b] telling the truth)

"She (The previous mayor) is not detained and she in not being held." "She is in our custody" What????
[QUOTE=Gamerman12;44689441]Hey now, don't construe what I say.[/QUOTE] I was referring to the extremists in the youtube comments, not you. But as far as I know this level of speculation regarding kidnapped prisoners is entirely unprecedented.
ColdWarWarriors thats a fucking laugh. This guy is complaining about Simon apparently being an operative.
The way he was treated wasn't something a normal goon could do, it was by someone who was trained to do so, don't leave marks, always lie, never let them know if they'll survive or not. They're defo backed by people that know what they're doing.
