A1plus put out a short article and a video...Watch this video. Gor Kloyan's father explains that he refuses to stand for a judge and prosecutor who refused to stand when there was a moment of silence for the victims of March 1-2.
There is so much to be said, so much to be applauded, in the actions of the Seven, and ALL of the political prisoners.
What strikes me so much is the Dignity with which these individuals carry themselves. They are Proud, and they bring pride to their families and the true Armenia in their actions. They risk everything in pursuing to the end the principles which they believe to be right.
What strikes me too is the refusal to be victimed. Armenians, at least in the Diaspora, have thrived on defining themselves through victimization. Jahangiryan, the Seven, beaten Journalists, those who continue to come out to demonstrations and speak out, and so many others have shown all of us what true belief in principles is.

Unlike those who mouth the slogan “Forward, Armenia!” these people actually SHOW the way forward. When you’re sure of your values and principles, confidence, dignity, and courage come naturally.
As Thomas Jefferson said to Lafayette, “We are not to expect to be translated from despotism to liberty in a featherbed.”
I STAND WITH THEM

HOW SHAME AND DISGRACE FOR THE CORRUPT TO NOT STAND FOR MOMENT of SILENCE. I WISH I WILL BARE WITNESS TO BEAT THEIR SORRY ASS'S, OH WAIT, I WILL BARE WITNESS I AM THE ONE WHO WILL BEAT THEM DO THE GROUND. APUSH DAVAJANER
