  1. I heard he has developed a healthy distrust of tea in elevators too.

  2. What a complete coward. Last year he had weapons removed from soldiers during sone event or other.

  3. Old news. This was posted yesterday. Typical Newsweek is always late in the news cycle.

  4. I could be wrong of course, but I heard a rumour that bulletproof vests don’t help against hanging.

  5. I don’t think that is where the danger lies for him. He has to remain president to stay alive. It is the way he made it, kind of a real life Russian Hunger Games.

  6. Why do I care….anyway he needs to stay away from balconies…

  7. I mean, in fairness, I think most word leaders do.

    But not for the same reasons as Putler.

  8. All he needs is a bullet through the skull which nothing can protect you from that.

  9. At this point why bother going out at all? If he’s not confident in his intelligence and security personnel to keep him safe then he should just stay locked away inside. That vest probably isn’t going to do much against a rifle round anyways.

  10. Well if you get shot in the legs and it hits an artery you will bleed out anyway.

  11. Hopefully someone in ruzzia could test something for me. I’d like to know what happens when his vest is hit with something like, oh I dunno, a 20mm maybe.

  12. If only the “Lord of the Horizon” would reach out and touch Putin’s heart from all the way across the table.

  13. Will he get a grill/bbq cage for the Vodka bottle on his neck?
