In the first half of 2015, one concerned Odessa resident reacted very violently to local media reports about arson and explosions.
“As much as you can blow up all sorts of bullshit, you need to blow up Ukrainian fascists,” he wrote then on the social network.
“I think we all need to get together, blow up to hell everyone who follows at one time, otherwise they shorten the cat’s tail a little bit. And so once and more in the future without explosions,” he commented on the news on the Odessa “Timer” .
“...But if they succeed, it will be an example for other cities. In the rear it is even easier - there are few National Guards here. Gather several thousand people and slaughter all the Maidanists.

The court regarded these posts as “calls for the destruction of the henchmen of nationalist ideas that support the current Ukrainian government.”
Blogger sentenced to three years of imprisonment with the same probationary period and all his equipment was confiscated to the state: router, laptop, system unit and storage devices.
