Социологические опросы показывают, что решающее большинство русских превратилось в минипутов.

Например,

Как и в ситуации с Крымом, респонденты не против присутствия «вежливых людей» на Восточной Украине, но не готовы признаться в наличии там наших войск.

Это, практически, прямая копия поведения Путина:

For nearly four hours, Merkel -- joined around midnight by new European Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker -- tried to get the former KGB agent, a fluent German speaker, to let down his guard and clearly state his intentions.

But all the chancellor got from Putin, officials briefed on the conversation told Reuters, were the same denials and dodges she had been hearing for months.

Думаю, что пока Путин у власти в России, ситуация не изменится.

Ferguson riots: much ado about nothing

It's a non-event, except for the media, because most people anticipated that the mob was going to riot anyway. Unlike the Rodney King trial 20+ years ago, the Ferguson case didn't involve any attempts at a cover-up; police corruption was also a non-issue; the court venue and jury selection processes were completely normal; etc. The riots make a good TV picture, but most likely will amount to nothing.

update. riots is a good thing because they create jobs: police jobs, cleanup jobs, media jobs, etc.
