The image, captured in Moscow, is a stark reminder that tyranny has spread its wings the world over. Whether you’re living in Greece, the Peoples’ Republic of communist China, oligarch Russia or the democratic United States of America makes no difference. The battle between David and Goliath is being fought on many fronts and in many nations. He sat there for a moment, balancing on his training wheels, staring at the menacing troops who were decked out in blue camouflage uniforms and full riot gear, nightsticks at the ready. A group of protesters who had been heckling the cops began jeering, “Here’s the guy that will storm the Kremlin. Be ready boys! Here he comes!” Julia Ioffe, the Moscow correspondent for The New Yorker and Foreign Policy magazine, happened to be standing right behind him. She whipped out her iPhone and snapped a picture which she tweeted out to her over 6,000 followers with the caption “Russia’s Tianamen (sic) image.” The photo quickly ricocheted around the internet.

I see this little bicycle weave through the crowd and stop in front of the troops. He stood there for a few minutes. I’m not sure why. -- Julia Ioffe, Moscow Correspondent for the New Yorker --
As a bloody skirmish between police and opposition activists in central Moscow was drawing to a close on Sunday a small boy on a tiny bicycle pedaled through the crowd and approached a line of hulking riot police.

As capitalists everywhere demand it in the name of commerce uber alles.
Your idiocy knows no bounds.
Yet it's YOU who can't disprove my statement.
Ignoratio Elenchi.
Ignoratio elinchi roughly translates to "a red herring.". In other words, you're throwing out ridiculous statements to derail the thread. Indeed, your "statement" is so patently absurd, it doesn't merit debate. You might as well claim the moon is made of cottage cheese, and then demand I disprove it. Your attempts to derail anything that negatively reflects on the o'Bungler. police-state smack of desperation, though, which pleases me greatly. [One must wonder whether you're another government stooge paid to distract REAL Americans from noticing the rampant corruption? I find it difficult to believe anyone else could be so consistently slavish to the nanny-state.] Thank you for proving the point I made to Mad Dog. CHECK-mate.

Otherwise known as you can't disprove it only you are too much of a weasel to admit it. Plus the definition of derail in your world must mean interjecting any opinion not your own. BTW it's nice to see that you and Mad Dog have kissed and made up. You two should make a cute couple.
