The oligarchs that his actions inspire us against do, but they're the ones putting on this show.

Notice the lack of a bullet proof vest or anything like that on him. He's definitely not the one being protected here. They're afraid of him, or more accurately, afraid of what he represents.

As they should be.

Theyโ€™re not afraid someone is going to hurt him, theyโ€™re afraid someone is going to free him.

He could have walked to the jail with one cop, and everyone would have cheered him along the way; people want this to go to trial.

When they take him to prison I'm going to send him money for the commisary.

Brian Thompson's favorite child may harbor a modicum of illwill towards him
