Russia proved me very wrong.

I was adamant that the members of Pussy Riot would never serve out their entire terms, and that they would all likely be released within 6 months.

I was adamant that western media was playing up the angle of the hard-line Russian government cracking down on free expression in the country, and that Russia would prove that "they are just like us" by showing leniency after making a public display, essentially to "prove a point and send a message".

Nope.

Looks like at least one of those girls is still in prison to this day. Shame on you, Russians. I'm disappointed in you.
