The inauguration of an Iranian governor was interrupted by a man walking on stage and slapping him in the face - allegedly because he was furious his wife had to get her Covid jab delivered by a male doctor.

The motive for the attack is unclear with one report saying the man was unhappy that his wife's Covid-19 vaccine had been administered by a male healthcare professional.
Security immediately swarmed the stage and dragged the assailant off through a side door, knocking down a curtain as they did.

I would not put it past my x-Gf if she was allowed anywhere near our esteemed governor though.

I was in the Peace Corps in the late ‘60s training to go to Afghanistan as an English teacher. but we were all trained to administer small pox vaccinations. But we were told that under no circumstances were any of the men to try and vaccinate Afghan women, it could cost us our lives. So he got off easy with just a slap.
That doctor saw his wife’s upper arm.
She’s used goods now.
Got it now...thanks for the explanation. Seriously...you are probably dead on accurate in terms of what was going on in the “slapper’s” mind as he drew back to apply the blow.
This Iranian Governor needs a better security team.
That was a good slap for sure, but it could have been something else, a bullet or a shoe even.
Ask George W. Bush what that feels like.
