Several supercilious members of the Club are not content watching Richie’s popularity, and are trying to reclaim some of his fame by replicating his outrageous feat in other cities of Europe. The outcome was pathetic: some got thrown into jails, and others got recruited by conventional religious denominations. Many were beaten and even injured, right on the places of their desperate experiment… A part of those, who have already paid their dues to the law-abiding society by being beaten, are incarcerated and persecuted by the prison guards and criminals.

This is why the administration of the Club appeals to all its members with a pleading request to discontinue such actions in the near future, anywhere but in Latvia, since it is very dangerous and may invite unwelcome consequences.

In the off-the-record interview, the Latvian policemen hid their eyes and answered that they don’t want to detain the peeing due to the unwillingness to deal with them.

The cops prefer for them to pay the fine at once and get lost!

Why is it so? What is the matter? It is not about their leniency or their grovelling before the West! The police say that since Latvia has become part of the European Union these tourists not only demand to see their lawyers, but also cite the third article of the European Convention on the Human Rights.

They bang on the doors of their cells and scream out the insults:

– Sadists!

– Savages!

– Fascists!

– the SS league!

And what does it have to do with the SS league again!? And what does it have to do with us! The detained persons threaten to appeal to the Convention’s stipulations on the abolishment of torture and other humiliating punishment. And all that would occur if they are denied a separate cell with a contemporary toilet, an air conditioner, and other comfortable amenities of their prison lives for the entire time of incarceration. Can you imagine such a thing in our jails?! Where shall we get all of that?! If any minute detail is out of order, the lawyers are more than happy to scribble appeals for the mind-blowing amounts due in compensation for the alleged moral and physical suffering. If you drag each of these tourists into jail, we will never stay out of trouble. It really is not worth it. All these compensation claims destroyed our Ministry to the point where there was no means to support the Police Academy and it had to shut down.
