Dissidents In Russya Shocked by Kremlin MOves

        Well, protesters  were the targets of Kremlin moves to stifle dissent and dissenters.  Orders were carried out by Russyan banks that held deposits of known dissenters who were listed by the FSB as opponents of the sitting government run by Herr Putin.  In a move that sent a chill through the opposition group run by Sergey Navalny, banks froze accounts of known members of his group.  Deposits were shielded by computers and rendered useless by the owners.  Without access to these accounts, many members of the opposition are now faced with the difficulties of finding cash on which to live.
      Even in a system that alleges a legal system with recourse for victims of fraud and abuse, this move by the Kremlin will cause second thoughts of those who are vocal in their opposition to the little dictator of St. Petersburg who now resides in Moscova.
     NO surprises here: he does what he wants, and as is the habit of those afflicted with paranoia, it could come in any form, anytime. 
     Keep smiling.  Winter is coming.
