Stereotypes

From an article about another dumb thing to hang on police duty belts comes this gem:
Guns that fire rubber bullets attained brief notoriety in Russia after an argument about the merits of philosopher Immanuel Kant in a southern Russian bar devolved into violence in October 2013. One man fired several rubber bullets at his philosophical opponent, who was injured but not killed.
Wow. "...[A]n argument about the merits of philosopher Immanuel Kant in a southern Russian bar devolved into violence..."

That might be the most Russian thing I've ever read.
