The so-called "patriotic education" of children in Russia, based on a mixture of chauvinism and militarism, can lead to rather predictable results.

For example, in the village of Krasny Desant in Rostov Oblast, 15-year-old Grigory B. attempted to stage a massacre at his home school, local outlet SVTV News reported on Sept. 11.

The teenager came to school wearing a Guy Fawkes mask (a character from “V for Vendetta” based on the identity of one of the key participants in the Gunpowder Plot against King James I in 1605).

The wearing of the mask led to a conflict with the janitor.

A relative of one of the students intervened, after which the student took out a kitchen knife he had brought with him.

Three adults were injured in the ensuing fight – the relative, the janitor, and a teacher. After a while, security forces arrived and subdued the attacker.

During his arrest, the young man shouted that he was being attacked by "Ukrainians" and "Poles" – which Kremlin propaganda has been frightening Russian citizens with for years through all media.
