Pussy Riot is Partially Free

One of the girls, Maria Alyokhina, has been released from prison and the second, Nadezhda Tolokonnikova is expected to be released on Monday.  They have done nearly two years in prison in retribution for one of the most spectacular stunts punk rock ever pulled.  Yah, it was tasteless but it was supposed to be.  It's fuckin' punk.  (CNN:  Maria Alyokhina, Pussy Riot band member, released from Siberian prison)
