>Russian NEETs and anons can now be literally beaten to within an inch of their life by their parents, spouses, or siblings with no real repercussions.
So...this is the power of Russian values.
Some 368 lawmakers voted in favor of the law, with just one deputy voting against the plans. One other deputy abstained from the vote.
The bill would remove the charge of "battery within families" from Russia's Criminal Code, downgrading it to an administrative offense. Criminal charges would only be brought against offenders if familial beatings took place more than once a year.
The bill was spearheaded by ultra-conservative Russian lawmaker Yelena Mizulina, who is already notorious for successfully lobbying Russia's controversial “gay propaganda” law.
Mizulina first took up the fight in July 2016, when President Vladimir Putin decriminalized other forms of assault and battery that did not cause actual bodily harm. Mizulina has called the decision to define battery within families as a more serious offense – alongside hooliganism and hate assaults — as "anti-family, and claims that the law undermines parents' "right" to beat their children.
“Punishments [for offenses] can not contradict the system of social values that society holds on to,” Mizulina said in a speech opening Wednesday's vote in the Duma. “In Russian traditional family culture parent-child relationships are built on the authority of the parents' power... The laws should support that family tradition.”
According to Russian government statistics, 40 percent of all violent crimes are committed within the family. The figures correlate to 36,000 women being beaten by their partners every day and 26,000 children being assaulted by their parents every year.
Fuck off Westerners, we have our own (XVI century) values!

The only reason ending communism was a mistake was that more famines and shit would have finished off Russia for good if communism continued.

More terrible would be a tax on the unemployed if his will.

>hitting your wife now works the same way hitting a stranger would I don't agree with it, but it ain't too bad.

>I don't see how this could be perceived as "cultural progress" desu. Well it finally allows men who have been oppressed for so long in our society to once again be free to be themselves without going to jail for it. It is the end of a dark age of anti-male tyranny and discrimination, and it is the most progressive thing to happen in the last 50 years. Not even joking.

it eliminates a stiffer penalty for hitting a family member vs hitting a stranger, and makes the law apply equally to everyone instead of setting up a protected class >legalising assault yeah, fuck off nigel
Evan Nguyen
Not necessarily true, I knew a girl who kicked her boyfriend hard in the stomach and he called the cops. She got thrown in prison for months as a result, and it was just a single kick.
Liam James
Women get charged with domestic violence here too. >muh victim complex >muh conspiracy against men Grow up
Charles Brown
>be woman >beat a man >get a month in prison
>be man >beat a woman >get five years

Was six months actually and only not longer because it was her first criminal offense and there was no injury, don't think she got off lightly.

I'd love to get really cozy with a girl in Russia and end up living with her, then one day she turns, violently batters me and forces me to live as her slave for life.

They just annexed a neighbors territory, so at least the're consistent with 19th century values.

Pour vodka on printer, chav. It should stop its working sequence If it's truly mad, expect slurping noises.

>be man >>beat a woman >>get five years There are plenty of men who never go to jail because the idiot woman won't press charges.

Meanwhile beating your kids is still legal in most of Western Europe.

Bravo, Russia!
Kayden Perry
The problem was that if parent would beat his kid he will be punished harder then a random guy who will do so.
But i'm not suprised for american ignorance.
Jordan Rivera
It's a bigger crime because the kid isn't forced to spend the next 18 years with a random guy
Levi Moore
You don't know what you talking about. Just another guy who think that he know everythink better then others.
Ian Reed
It's cultural senpai, I was referring to what you said which is the belief the cultural progress is linear. Just hate the belief that new automatically means good and old equals bad.

The idea of domestic violence is stupid to begin with. There are laws against violence, simple assault and battery are still punished by law, no need for special snowflake domestic violence laws.
