Well turned D. Much respect.
In order for me to hold a chechen child at gun point and rape her in front of her brother, I would have to be extremely mentally ill. It would require a pretty serious delusion probably combined with some sort of paranoia.
I can't imagine that it's the policy of the Russian government. But if it is, then this kind of resistance may be warranted. Still, if I were resisting I would target agents of the state, not random people. The agents of the state are the ones responsible and I think they would take the situation more seriously if they were personally targetted.
As far as personality goes I take my cues from the culture and not the state. In this case does the state want to institute a new culture, like enforced language changes and such?
