El Centro de Información Hablemos Press (CIHPRESS), documentó, en el mes de abril, 377 arrestos por motivos políticos, realizados por los cuerpos represivos castristas.

En el momento de la detención, actuaban como activistas de derechos humanos e intentaban hacer valer su derecho a la libertad de expresión, opinión e información, derechos que tienen todos los seres humanos, y que el régimen castrista reprime en su totalidad.

Why Russians protest, by Daniel Vajdic.
One year ago today, Vladimir Putin formally returned to the Kremlin to serve a third term as Russia’s president. And the day before his inauguration, Moscow witnessed the most violent demonstration of the Putin era, which by nearly all accounts was spurred by police brutality; over two dozen protesters remain in prison twelve months later. The rally was first and foremost held to protest Putin’s brazen job swap with Dmitry Medvedev (now prime minister). Since then, however, the Kremlin has given the opposition even more reason to assemble. Leon Aron writes extensively about the protest movement but here’s a very truncated list of what’s happened in Russia over the last year and why the opposition staged a large rally yesterday.
Alternatives to the War on Drugs, by Gary Becker.
The war on drugs makes it much more difficult for individuals who are unhappy about their addictions to cocaine or other drugs to end their addictions. When using drugs is a criminal offense, drug addicts who want to quit hesitate going to drug clinics, or seeking other help, because they are subject to arrest. Although decriminalizing drugs makes it easier to experiment with using drugs, it also encourages the development of for-profit and non-profit organizations that help individuals terminate their reliance on cocaine, heroin, and other addictive drugs. Since smoking and drinking are legal, the non-profit organization AA could develop to help heavy drinkers end their addiction, and profit-making companies had the incentive to create patches to help individuals stop smoking.
