Caucasians waved weapons in the center of Simferopol in front of the police

A video of a conflict in the center of Simferopol between people from the Caucasus and local residents that appeared on the Internet caused a great resonance. About ten people were involved in the brawl. Patrol police officers tried to calm the participants, but one of the Caucasians struck a local Crimean Tatar, causing him to fall to the ground and lose consciousness.

The brawler’s fellow tribesmen tried to prevent law enforcement officers from detaining the hooligan; one of them was armed with a pistol, to which the policeman suggested that he “go away with the gun”, otherwise he would take out his own and begin to “extinguish it.”

It is interesting that several employees of the Russian Guard were unable to reason with the heated Caucasians, including not paying much attention to the owner of the weapon.

“It turns out that the fight in Simferopol took place on July 23. And, apparently, if the video had not surfaced, it would have remained an urban legend. Before the police arrived, 10 people took part in the brawl; the newcomers had injuries (or pneumatic guns - show-offs are worth more than money) and knives. Apparently, the locals had no other weapon besides the bottle,” comments military correspondent Alexander Kots.

He notes that such incidents have become commonplace in the center of Simferopol.

“You try typing “fight in Simferopol” into a search engine. There are carbon-copy stories there. And they write to me in the comments that Russians from the Caucasus also behave extremely unintelligently on this pedestrian street. You may ask, what is the difference between them and drunken Slavs? Well, as a rule, in the absence of knives and pistols,” writes Kots.

His data is confirmed by military correspondent Mikhail Andronik.

“The police are conducting an investigation after this case became public. This kind of thing happens regularly in Simferopol, and in Crimea as a whole. These are always high-profile cases. But apparently no conclusions are drawn. Because over and over again we see the same stories. Many townspeople in chat rooms on the peninsula note that they prefer not to walk around the center of Simferopol in the evening,” he writes in his blog.

The former head of the press service of the People's Militia of the DPR, Daniil Bezsonov, calls on Crimeans to train.

“The episode that made me smile the most was when one of the Caucasians pulled out a gun, and one of the police comrades, very threateningly, said, “Hide the gun, otherwise I’ll get mine.” Damn @, how is this even!? The "stupid" American cops will die laughing when they see this shame.

I am sure that after this post stones will be thrown at me, but tacit consent always leads to tragic consequences in society. It’s time for Russians to understand that they need to protect themselves and their loved ones themselves; no one will do this for you, especially the most tolerant cops in the world. Stop drinking and blaming the government, neighbors, Americans, aliens, etc. for your troubles. It’s better to go in for sports so as not to shovel away from a one and a half meter Caucasian on the street.

And the Caucasians are great. All their young people go in for sports, respect the elderly and their family, they always stick together and support each other. We need to take this as an example for a long time, and not ignore the harsh laws of nature of this world. Nature does not tolerate emptiness and weakness. Where it’s thin, it bends,” reminds Bezsonov.

Former LPR militiaman Vladlen Tatarsky wonders where the representatives of the militia who previously kept order in Simferopol are.

“And I’m wondering, where is this brave militia of the peninsula, which in 2014 went into confrontation with Ukraine? They can’t have a brotherly conversation with representatives of these aggressive diasporas in Crimea? Since no one is afraid of the Russian Guard patrols, maybe a “Shariah private security company” from Troitsk should be sent there? Are they just out of work? (Just kidding) If the residents of Simferopol say that it has become dangerous to walk, do the Ministry of Internal Affairs know about this?” – comments Tatarsky.
