So who does the U-Haul driver want to be in charge if he’s anti Shah and anti Mullah?

Multiple people injured, several nearly killed, after a U-Haul Truck emblazoned with anti-monarchist, anti-regime signs drives through a pro-monarchist, anti-regime march on Veterans Avenue in Los Angeles, hosted by the Iranian diaspora in California.


So a Marxist-Communist-Fascist not liking the rally for a less authoritarian and more freedom for the People?

That does not surprise me.

These frickn leftists, Rule Me Harder, Daddy.

Why do people run after a car? Or truck? Especially the old codger.. you gonna catch up to it and what... shake your fist at the guy?

smh.

You find yourself in a crowd where there's a 'hey! look over here!' moment, look around and see what else may be happening.

Go check the inter-webs and see how many right leaning paid protestor organizations there are.

Zero point zero there, John Bluto Blutarsky.

What was your point again?

Right-wing protests receive financial support from a variety of sources, including wealthy individual donors, foundations, non-profit organizations, and crowdfunding efforts.

Key Funding Sources and Mechanisms

Wealthy Donors and Foundations: Significant funding comes from high-net-worth individuals and conservative foundations.

The Koch network (including groups like Freedom Partners Chamber of Commerce) has been a major source of support for right-wing causes and related organizations.

The Bradley Impact Fund, a donor-advised fund, funnels millions to pro-Trump and far-right groups while allowing donors to remain anonymous.

Donors linked to groups like the Heritage Foundation, a powerful conservative think tank, provide substantial resources to promote specific agendas and support allied groups.

In a potential future development, Elon Musk is reportedly considering a significant donation to a right-wing UK party.

There are more. Both sides are encouraged financially.

That wasn't the point, which was that there are no paid protesters for the Right as there are on the Left. I believe he is right. You gave examples of right wing donors supporting right wing causes. We don’t need proof of that. Hell, I’m one of them.

Not surprising since the Dems/media have said for the last 3 days that it's ok to hit people in the middle of the street with your car/truck.

I'm withholding judgment on this until we get some NBA coach opinions. Has anyone asked Doc Rivers or Steve Kerr about it yet?

It’s time for there to be laws for people being in the street. I don’t give a frick what the cause is., there are plenty of places to voice your opinion besides the street.

Generally speaking there are. Many area you are supposed to get a permit to do something like host a massive protest.

The police and municipalities just don’t care to enforce them

Exactly. If you don't have a permit with some crowd control you're on your own.

Gawd you lefties Canucks trying to project your shite equivalencies.

The Right doesn't protest anywhere near at the same levels you lefties do. Especially not doing it while being paid protestors.

So the U-Haul was driven by Paulie from The Sopranos?
