I wonder if it will turn into one of those Khomeini events, with people trying to grab a body part

“Two million people attended his funeral[122]. Iranian officials aborted Khomeini’s first funeral, after a large crowd stormed the funeral procession, nearly destroying Khomeini’s wooden coffin in order to get a last glimpse of his body. At one point, Khomeini’s body actually almost fell to the ground, as the crowd attempted to grab pieces of the death shroud. The second funeral was held under much tighter security. Khomeini’s casket was made of steel, and heavily armed security personnel surrounded it. In accordance with Islamic tradition, the casket was only to carry the body to the burial site. In 1995, his son Ahmad Khomeini was buried next to him. Khomeini’s grave is now housed within a larger mausoleum complex.”

I saw on TV this morning the cars already lined up near Dodger Stadium. How would you like to have been a fly in the car of one of those moon-walking moonbats? I’ll bet there were some really high-minded intellectual conversations taking place. Is it true that TMZ means “Teenaged Moronic Zombies?”
