Signals to the militia, that we're coming.
[QUOTE=Taepodong-2;43631606]I think it's really sad that this isn't bigger news and probably won't be until shit really hits the fan.[/QUOTE]
Not too surprised. No one gave a shit when Egypt was going through the same stuff for a while.
I heard from the news that there are 5 deaths. One fell from a rooftop.
drummers in the spotlight

I just spent 10 minutes trying to get a damn gif recorded of them drumming but the fucking stream buffers more than a single loop of the drumming

What is that loud banging I keep hearing occasionally? Doesn't seem to bother the people beating away at the metal bits much.

looks/sounds like it could be those concussive grenades and flashbangs they've been chucking around since the start, or it could be the police snipers taking pot shots to scare off people entering no man's land
Could the Ukrainians actually fight a Syria style civil war? Does the populace have access to weapons?

Well, shit.

I'd be willing to bet they have as much access to weaponry as the Syrians had, it being a former Soviet state and all...
The Syrians had less access to weapons than the UK.
They got them from the military defections.

Ustream is awful, anyone got a better stream?
[QUOTE=Turing;43631917][IMG]http://i.imgur.com/F0LjZMY.png[/IMG][/QUOTE]
Sadly doesn't tell anything. A 12-gauge can be anything from a beanbag or paint-marker to a flechette-packed hellstorm or a small frag grenade. It just says 12, nothing else.
The RT stream WAS good, not anymore.

Too bad the opposition is full of shit

How are you holding up out there?
[QUOTE=Recurracy;43631961]How are you holding up out there?[/QUOTE]
Well I'm fine, I'm more than 600 km away from the action. I'm planning to go there next week though
[QUOTE=Laserbeams;43631977]Well I'm fine, I'm more than 600 km away from the action. I'm planning to go there next week though[/QUOTE]
To join in or?
[QUOTE=Laserbeams;43631950]Too bad the opposition is full of shit[/QUOTE]
What's happening with the opposition?
[QUOTE=Laserbeams;43631950]Too bad the opposition is full of shit[/QUOTE]
Surely any government is better than the one you have currently.
[QUOTE=The mouse;43632012]Surely any government is better than the one you have currently.[/QUOTE]
Rethink that sentence real careful now.
irrespective of how bad shit is getting, they're not getting shot at with actual bullets or airstrikes.
[QUOTE=Sobotnik;43632001]What's happening with the opposition?[/QUOTE]
Nothing. I never liked them. They're not much better than Yanukovich, and I don't see any of them becoming a better president, they are all power-hungry and corrupt assholes, that's why I hadn't gone to the Euromaidan yet. The thought of getting the shit beaten out of me for the benefit of these people was disgusting
[QUOTE=The mouse;43632012]Surely any government is better than the one you have currently.[/QUOTE]
Well it's not worse, but it's not progress at all. The worst is Tyahnybok with his nationalist party. He's associated with various neo-Nazi groups in Ukraine, such as the Patriots of Ukraine.

This is the Patriots of Ukraine logo. Subtle as fuck, isn't it? Yeah, I don't want these people anywhere near our government. The rest aren't better either.
But as long as they give me my freedom of speech back, I guess I can live with them for a few years
So... Which stream are you guys watching?

Surely it's also for the benefit of the Ukranian people themselves, regardless of how the opposition is acting?
I don't really know beyond the riots and the response though, so don't think I'm passing any kind of judgement
[QUOTE=Turing;43631907][IMG]http://i.imgur.com/u3l7ZSx.png[/IMG][/QUOTE]
I have a bad feeling that if the opposition gains the army's support that would be Russia's cue to enter.
Whenever I see the Ukrainian riot police try to form a testudo formation it looks like this:

Yeah, I too, can't wait for our nation to tear itself apart and see people dying.
Are you ok?
