Russian neo-Nazi thugs beat "nonwhite" Ukrainian to death in Moscow while people walk by, do nothing

March 18, 2015
Ukrainian citizen Roman Muzychenko, 37, died in the intensive care unit without regaining consciousness, after he had been violently beaten by a group of 21 Nazis in Moscow, Russia. The incident was recorded on surveillance cameras near the Silikatnaya subway station. Large group of individuals surrounded their unsuspecting target and started viciously beating him. Chilling footage shows passers-by calmly minding their own business and walking along, as a violent group of young men brutally pummeled Roman Muzychenko.

The investigators determined that the ages of the attackers ranged from 15 to 20 years old. Members of the group of ultranationalists were trained in Pankration - a martial art style that combines boxing and wrestling. Ethnicity of the victim was the sole reported motive for the attack. Three suspects have been arrested and admitted their guilt. Two of them were released from police custody and placed under house arrest. One of the suspects was released and remains under police supervision. Police specified that Muzychenko was in fact “of Slavic appearance,” while the perpetrators wrongly assumed he wasn’t white. One hour after this cowardly assault, the nationalists attacked another man, simply for being “non-Slavic.” The second victim ended up in a hospital with serious injuries.

Two nationalists accused of killing nonwhite men at the station Silicate in Moscow were placed under house arrest, the press service of the Investigative Committee of Russia (MRS) said.
...
The incident occurred on February 14 stations Silicate Kursk direction MOR. The attackers thought the victim was a citizen of Tajikistan and beat him on the ground out of national hatred. However, the man was a citizen of Ukraine named Roman Muzichenko. On February 26 he died in hospital from his injuries. 21 people participated in the attack; 18 have already been arrested.

In addition, the TFR found that this group of aggressive young people beat another man nonwhite on the same day at the station Chekhov.

1. Your bigotry is showing. People stopped and yelled at them and you can see them calling the police.

who is going to go up against a gang of violent thugs? It would be the same here.

You need to change the title, which basically accuses the Russian people of being racists.

The police have caught them and they will go to jail. So yes, just like here there there are hate crimes.

What happened is news and is wrong: But the way you presented it and continually present these kinds of posts only exposes your own struggles and your apparent intentions.

There's nothing wrong with my eyes, and your interpretation of what other people were doing is pure fantasy. No one did a damned thing to help that poor man while the assault was taking place.

3. Do a search on google. It is not a "Russian" thing as is implied

and **all* unhope does is post negatively on anything Russian. It is a pattern of stereotyping and using emotional titles of his own choosing.

The phenomenon of people being AFRAID to jump in the middle of a gang is quite universal.

Those people on the same side of the fence walking back were part of the group of 21 punks. If you watch the people on the left you can see people stop and shout and talking on a cell phone.

Here from google. When will you guys post all these? This is just the first page:

Lower yourself. More like you are claiming Keyboard warrior high ground. Yea right, you would have waded into that gang and shown them up. Then there would have been two dead and you would have helped nothing. Better to call the police.

Did you even READ. The articles make it clear that was a fucking GANG.

Da?

Most people however, are not going to be the first to leap into a mob of 21 people beating the shit out of someone. By all means, it's great and awesome that you're so certain you would. I'd estimate you'd just get your ass beaten to a quivering pulp just liek the other guy, but hey, you tried.

The argument is about the title of the OP. It would be nice to have people chiming in who actually understood what the argument was about, instead of randomly posting straw man replies to statements I never made.

You're welcome.

In the second part all those people were part of a nationalist gang. It looks like there were more than 21 but a number of friends who were onlookers. Even so, a gang of 21 people is not something you can jump in and stop.

Talking about Ukraine, etc. Russian isn't a race now, is it?

More of an ethnicity. And this thing about 'non-white.' What does in the world does that mean?

They all look pretty 'white' to me. I think whatever they are doing, getting into other people's face and all this aggression, is sick!

I see vids of really sick crap coming from all over the planet, since like everyone else I'm connected to the internet. I see vids of sick crap being shown regarding a situation in Ferguson, USA.

OK, now I see some blogs and posts to forums etc. by some who might be called "anti-Obama folks", who post never-ending streams of "information" instructing me in why they are "anti-Obama", and why Obama is a monster, to who those who disagree are "Obots" or worse, want to be Obama's bitch. Further, I see some postings by some of these *same* people, instructing me on the the situation in Ferguson, USA, with suggestions/associations as to how this reflects on Obama, and on the USA in general. Reflections being very promiscuous.

At this point I like to say that I can smell an agenda that isn't entirely truthful. It's weird, but not truthful.
I wouldn't ask "USian isn't a race now, is it?"
