In a society where people don't care about what they allow their government to do, how they allow their government to deal with situations such as Nord Ost and Beslan, is doomed. As long as it is someone else's family who lose their child because the government messes up the rescue efforts, and then puts a price tag on that child's life- $3000 in Nord Ost, a little more in Beslan-people go about their business in numb silence. This denial mixed with fear is the most dangerous symptom of Russian society.
