Three members of Russian punk band Pussy Riot are jailed for two years in Moscow for hooliganism after performing an anti-Putin song in a cathedral.
When I first saw the headline I wondered what the hell it was about, but I see Russia is still doing a good job of being a land of freedom and free speech. Serb, what do you say to this, or is this just another lie from the corrupt press of the decadent West?

A ticket for mischief would have been appropriate.

Sorry, didn't see this, guess I'm blind. Now I know what both our Russians think...attempting to set aside my biases in favor of the Orthodox Church and against no-class hippie performance-art protesters, a month would've been far better. I would normally suggest a simple fine, but their level of Western support suggests that any fine would be paid, and then some, by somebody like Madonna. Community service would be the ideal punishment, come to think of it--does Russia do that?
Well, since they are not American, they don't have freedom of speech. Thus, they should be punished for this. I suppose, how much depends on the values of their country.

If they were issued a fine (or other appropriate reprimand) Madonna would never have heard of it.

Not necessarily. One of the groups previous stunts involved an orgie in a museum - I believe Madonna has that trademarked.

...and this time they prayed to Madonna.

Yes, we do have community service, and no, your source in your other thread has it wrong: there was no service so they couldn't've interrupted it and there are no expletives in the song "Theotokos, deliver us from Putin".
I personally am fine with community service as the best fitting punishment, but I guess the subject of the song didn't like it.

MOSCOW - Some Russian activists have sued Madonna for millions of dollars, claiming they were offended by her support for gay rights during a recent concert in St. Petersburg.
Anti-gay sentiment is strong in Russia. In St. Petersburg, a law passed in February makes it illegal to promote homosexuality to minors, and the author of that law has pointed to the presence of children as young as 12 at Madonna's concert on Aug. 9.
Russian news agencies quote Alexander Pochuyev, a lawyer representing the nine activists, as saying the suit was filed Friday against Madonna, the organizer of her concert, and the hall where it was held, asking for damages totalling 333 million rubles, or nearly $10.5 million.
Responding to criticism that the plaintiffs were stuck in the Middle Ages, the lawyer said they were using civilized, modern methods to defend their rights. "No one is burning anyone at the stake or carrying out an Inquisition," Pochuyev was quoted by RIA Novosti as saying. "Modern civilization requires tolerance and respect for different values."
The complaint includes a video taken at the concert showing Madonna stomping on an Orthodox cross and asking fans to raise their hands to show the pink armbands in support of gays and lesbians that were distributed among the audience, the new agency reported.
Madonna's spokeswoman, Liz Rosenberg, did not immediately respond to emails asking for the singer's reaction to the lawsuit....
Another funny bit about the P*ssy Riot case - the offended senior cleric, Putin's favourite, has had a few controversies of his own, including owning a $25,000 watch (he has taken a vow of poverty) & winning a $350,000 law suit against a cancer patient.
