📝One raid won't be enough📝 on the detention of teenagers in Kitay-Gorod Looking at such footage, you can't help but wonder — how many more fights, attacks on passersby, and complaints from local residents will it take before teenage gangs stop treating central Moscow as a territory where they can do whatever they want? On November 7, police conducted a large-scale raid in Kitay-Gorod. The Basmanny District police department received predominantly teenagers — we're talking about potentially several hundred people. Moscow's main police headquarters explained the operation as necessary to maintain public order and prevent violations, including drinking alcohol in public places. 🖍The problem of such permissiveness didn't arise yesterday. Since last summer, groups of so-called kageshniki have been regularly gathering in the area. Social media posts show mass brawls, conflicts with passersby, and drunken gatherings. In September, it came to criminal prosecution of a 16-year-old teenager who beat a man at Kitay-Gorod metro station. And just recently we drew attention to another story: after Halloween celebrations, young people littered the monument to children killed in Beslan with plastic bottles. And apparently, none of those gathered were even bothered by where exactly they held their party. 🚩So the question is rather why such raids are insufficient to stop what's happening. Because if after another raid teenagers return to the same streets and continue behaving the same way, it means that preventive talks and being brought to the police station are clearly not enough. ❗️Examples from that same "flourishing Europe" show how difficult it can be to deal with street gangs when they go years without proper opposition. And there's no need to wait until districts appear in central Moscow where ordinary passersby are afraid to go in the evenings. 📌Otherwise, you can endlessly discuss youth education and traditional values while another group of teenagers will be vividly demonstrating what all these talks are worth without elementary order on the streets. #mediatechnology #Moscow #Russia ✉ MAX 💸Support us Original msg
