"Kill the liberals"
Not my sentiment, I hasten to add, but rather of one Maxim Martsinkevich, a Russian ultranationalist. He has been arrested for 'incitment to hatred' under Russian law, although there is also the matter of his having been shouting 'sieg heil' too (one would think that Russians would have 23.6m extremely good reasons not to play fast and loose with Nazi imagery and language...).

I suppose that someone shouting 'kill the liberals' in these parts could be charged with incitement, but I would not anticipate a successful prosecution. Still, if it did it would have the scope to clip the wings of the extreme left somewhat - not so much 'eat the rich' as 'attempt to persuade the rich of the superiority of our dialectic'. Can't see it catching on.
