You watch your Slavic self. You might think you're an obscure Russky in a big world, but you have a site that these ass holes probably don't really like, but I have become fond of it and it's author and it would aggravate me if something happened to either.

Any indication as to whether or not this is connected to the driver who ran over those soldiers a couple of days ago?

All evidence indicates that the driver was a loner and who only made a decision recently to commit this crime. But today's attack is different because it looks like it was coordinated and planned.
