Skinhead gang guilty of racist killing spree
-

- added this
The jury had to answer 280 questions in their deliberations on coming to a verdict.
Five of those on trial admitted their guilt, while Ryno himself admitted to participating in 37 murders.
The jurors found Ryno and Skachevsky undeserving of lenience. The jury recommended the remaining five be given the minimum punishement in accordance with the crime.
Most of them were underage, with most members ranging in age from 15 and 22 at the time of the crime.
Investigators say they targeted people of non-Slavic appearance, mostly from Central Asia and the Caucasus.
The gang beat and often killed their victims, filming the attacks on mobile phones and posting the video on the internet.
The two leaders of the group Artur Ryno and Pavel Skachevsky were arrested last year in connection with the murder of an Armenian businessman Karen Abramyan. Abramyan, 46, was stabbed 20 times in Moscow and later died in the hospital.
Ryno was reported to be a student at an icon painting school and told investigators that he began his murder spree on 21 August, 2006.
Although the proceedings were closed to the public, Interfax reported that both fully admitted carrying out the murders.

These people, nah, SCUM of the earth, are like an infectious disease spreading into the minds of our impressional youth. They brainwash them to believe that if it's not white, it's not right. And it is ok to brutally attack a human being simply because they are different. Do they not know that we are all created equal? That although your skin, hair, and eyes maybe a different color. We still eat, sleep, breath, and live the very same way. They idealize a coward, who hated them for the very same reasons that they hate others. It's just a repetition of hate, that seems to never end, unless we can oppose them. I appreciated this pod, b/c it opened my mind to how horrible the world can be. Too many people live in blind ignorance, and if they are building an army of hate. Then we must band together in opposition of love for any ethnicity, and bring justice to all. For if we stand by and watch them destroy people, then it is just a matter of time before it's gone too far, to go back.

Its been mentioned before but people don't want to listen and learn. Not all skins are hateful. By putting a neo-nazi and a S.H.A.R.P. (Skinheads against racial prejudice) skin on the same plane is closed minded. People like to simplify their beliefs but that simplicity can be harmful as well as closed minded

Considering these Russia's true history was rewritten during the communist revolution, and many other truths that we know as common knowledge... hate will go on, and what is so ironic is they won't understand that it is hate.

So the police are no longer supporting this violence? That is good news. At least where ever the arrests were made. In other parts of Russia the skinheads message is loud and clear: GET OUT! or DIE!

I watched From Russia With Hate months ago when I first discovered Current.com. The story was and still is blood-curdling. The whole thing is shocking. I can't believe there is so much hate in these characters that they are willing and ready to take lives freely -- and violently at that. I'm beginning to ask myself whether race is purely the motive or if it is just some form of an internalized ( and sick) excuse from a very severe mental illness?

There are plenty of black skins up and down the east coast, and America and overall skins know there own and know that they are not racist. It's a subculture that's been perverted by the media and copied into a awful subculture of hate-mongering bonehead bigot neo-nazi fucks. But yeah as posted above, skinhead doesn't equal racist, yadda yadda besides the point.
Honestly, these people should get capital punishment to set an example in Russia, this shit is getting out of control there and needs to be nipped out.

This is a show of misplaced aggression, and sick minded people will always be around. I just watched a documentary on the KKK on the History channel. This reminded me very much of those misfits. Hate crimes should be severely punished.

What a retarded world view. Attacking innocent people because of skin color and resentment is just being a poor sport. Granted, globalization has f*cked up the quality of life for many people (it would appear America is following in that wake), but addressing problems the way these guys did is just beyond wrong and twisted.
If they want to blame someone they should blame their government, not poor innocent souls who are just looking to earn money to survive like everyone else.
Totally misplaced aggression. That pod disturbed me when I saw it, and combined with the allegedly mob controlled Russian government it really raised some red flags in my mind. Since these guys were ultimately finally brought to justice, hopefully things over there aren't as bad as they appear and we don't have to worry about that "bear with a chip on its shoulder" mentality after all.

Neo-Nazis are nothing but scum. They follow some asshole who shot himself 60 years ago. Fighting hate with hate works. "Fuck you neo-Nazis" is better than hiding in the corner and preaching about how misguided they are. I don't condone violence, but we have to be prepared to fight back if they do something.
We need a group that's willing to get in the faces of these skinhead pussies, and say "FUCK YOU." They win if they intimidate us. Fight intimidation with intimidation! Fight hate with hate! It's good to hate neo-Nazis, the ones who condone mass-murder and genocide.
Fuck off neo-Nazis!

Yeah, the original skinheads were working class british kids who found themselves getting into clashes with the mods who were the british rich kids. Infact, the very first skinhead band was a black british band front Jamaica. But the white supremacists took it over and now it's time to drop the whole skinhead bullshit. Take for example the swastika......that has been a symbol of peace for the Hindus and Buddhists for centuries but then Hitler took it and perverted it and now you can't use that symbol anymore. There's no taking back the skinhead movement in order to make it positive. RASH (Red and Anarchist Skinheads against racism) tried to do that and they fell to pieces because anti-nazi clubs kept kicking the shit out of them. It's time to let it die.

aquamammal:
"A skinhead is a member of a subculture that originated among working class youths in the United Kingdom in the 1960s, and then spread to other parts of the world. Named for their close-cropped or shaven heads, the first skinheads were greatly influenced by West Indian (specifically Jamaican) rude boys and British mods, in terms of fashion, music and lifestyle. Originally, the skinhead subculture was primarily based on those elements, not politics or race. Since then, however, attitudes toward race and politics have become factors in which some skinheads align themselves. The political spectrum within the skinhead scene ranges from the far right to the far left, although many skinheads are apolitical. Fashion-wise, skinheads range from a clean-cut 1960s mod-influenced style to less-strict punk- and hardcore-influenced styles."

Unfortunately, acts of hate like this won't stop any time soon. There will always be conflict in some fashion whether it be religious or race. Education is the first step, I agree, but even then who's to say that will make an impact?

Russia needs to spend more time educating some people that still think they are a ruling race than spending so much time antagonizing other countries just to show they have power.
Isn't that what they've stated about America?...with the stretching of the American military hand to the far reaches of the Earth.
