Iran Unrest Turns Violent
Mahsa Amini Died in Police Custody
Street violence in Iranian cities was triggered by the death of Mahsa Amini, a 22-year-old Kurd. She was in a coma after being detained by the morality police in Tehran for not wearing a head covering.
Thousands of Iranian men and women have taken to the streets for the last few days in more than 150 cities across the country to protest the regime and its restrictive policies.
Verified footage on social media shows large crowds of protesters gathering in several neighborhoods of Tehran after dark, just hours after government-backed rallies concluded.
The protests are violent. Exact numbers are elusive with civilian deaths reported between 50 and 200 souls, and arrested numbers varying from ~1,200 to more than 10,000.

Protests in Iran over the death of Mahsa Amini while in police custody have spread even further across the country as the Iranian regime has ramped up efforts to crack down on the demonstrations.
Protests have spread to 100 Iranian cities and 30 provinces, leaving dozens dead and resulting in widespread arrests. Protesters have set fire to police and government buildings, while a government enforcer was killed in a stabbing by protesters during attempts to impose order.
The increasingly violent protests broke out over the death of Amini, who was arrested by Iranian morality police for not wearing a head covering in public. The demonstrations have become especially violent in Iran’s Kurdish minority region in the northeast, where police fired on protesters, killing five. Amini was a Kurd.
The Mad Mullahs fear they could see the protests surpass the 2019 demonstrations that led to some 1,500 dead, and a missed opportunity for regime change by Barry and crew. Here’s a rare second bite at that apple; sadly Medicated Joe’s Handlers are at the helm and the results will be even worse.

It’s been violent for about 2 weeks.
One would think people don’t like being hassled over umimportant sh*t…
Thought control of your population is your most important job as a government if today is any guide.
People don’t like tyranny in any form.
I hope these folks are able to change their rulers soon.
Democrat mind-puzzler: Do we call them “racist” like Chewbacca Guy?
Some Persian women are hot af. My money is always on the hotties!!
If she is needing sanctuary, I’ll volunteer space here @ Firebase Magnolia. And the only thing I’d cover that face with is kisses.
The Peoples of the World could take a lesson from the Iranians about tyranny…of all types…RISE UP! RESIST! REBEL! REVOLT!
Gonna be a cold winter in Eastern Europe?
I remember seeing a pic of the Iranian peeps before the country went down the tubes. You couldn’t tell what country in since everyone were dressed in clothes. like one would wear in the USA .
Tehran 1973. There is quite a bit of variety but most women are dressed to conform with Islam. However, quite a few are not.
Nothing will happen with Joe in charge….other than a renewal of the Iran Deal ol’ Barry Soretoe wanted.
