Absolutely lawless, extremist, arrogant, aggressive, hiding behind words about morality, about morality, and all sorts of, so to speak, good and high with the words: “patriotism”, “homeland” and “high morality”. These groups allegedly offended people who are close plays, close the show, very blatantly behave, which is very strange power neutral — distanciruemsa”, — noted in his speech Raikin.
