50,000 brave souls march in Moscow in memory of Boris Nemtsov, the assassinated foe of Putin

Really courageous to be publicly protesting at this point in Russia.
Tens of thousands have turned out for a memorial march in Moscow after the murder of prominent Russian opposition figure Boris Nemtsov.
The former deputy prime minister and fierce critic of the Kremlin was gunned down as he walked home with his girlfriend on Friday night.
The killing took place just 200 metres from the Kremlin, and came just before Nemtsov was due to lead a big rally against the war in Ukraine.

Apparently these signs say "I AM NOT AFRAID" :
