Yurii Kerpatenko, a good man killed by Putin.

[Walt]

Kerpatenko was a native of Kherson. He was a Russian speaker, and also a Ukrainian patriot. He was the chief conductor of the Kherson Orchestra... Not a soldier. He did not fight, but also refused to play at Putin's "International Music Day" festival to show how happy Kherson was to be under Russian occupation. For that refusal to play, Putin sent Russian Special Services to "talk" to him at his apartment, and then later to shoot him with a machine gun for refusing to play.

Kherson was liberated two months too late to save Kerpatenko's life, but we should always remember him.

It seems that the story is the product of the ' Ukrainian ministry '

Later, the Ukrainian ministry claimed that he was shot dead in his home by the Russian military due to refusing to cooperate with them during their occupation of Kherson Oblast

You know, Walt- I've never seen a thread from you- or anybody else here- condemning neo-Zionist fascists for killing Palestinians in their own homes.
This display of double-standards is not impressive.

I just bought a good version of the 1812 Overture on Mercury Records, and then I was good as far as they're concerned.

You talk like a bigot on heat.

You should remove the Samuel Johnson quote from your sig. He was talking about scoundrels such as you.

Yurii Kerpatenko, a good man killed by Putin.

Horseshit. He wasn't killed by Putin. There's not even any certainty that he was killed by Russians, let alone killed for refusing to play his euphonium.

The story, according to Wiki, emanates from 'the Ukrainian ministry ', whatever that is .
