These acts against our old and young are truly painful

by amirparvizforsecularmonarchy on

Don't even know what his views or actions were, his ideology or wishes either way a part of me feels a need to cry for this guy.  This mess we are in as a country is too depressing for words to express.  God bless him, may those unjust people who denied this old help less man his freedom and acted against his dignity in his old age one day be brought to justice.

In reality, Mr.Pourzand was murdered by the regime

by aynak on

No mercy for a 80 year old man to visit his ill wife and kids.   As his daughter has said,  his spirit is now free.   This really says so much about the nature of this regime.

May we all have good dreams.
