Video: Garry Kasparov attacked by symbol of what Putin's doing to Russia

It was either this or the video (two videos, actually) of Steve Ballmer getting egged in Hungary, but that one’s too boorish to warrant a post of its own — the bizarre merriment of the guys in the front row notwithstanding. Besides, I know my audience.

The suspects: A pair of pro-Putin kids. I believe it, too. If this was an official job, the thing would have sprayed Kasparov with polonium. Exit quotation: “Kasparov laughed off the Moscow incident remarking that the incident showed that his foes’ arguments were ‘below the belt’.”
