McCain IRANMOBILE Censored By The Makoy Center

Apparently, The Makoy Center is not always welcoming to their guests depending on the political views their guest's express.

After parking the McCain IRANMOBILE in the reserved parking spaces in front of the building at the Makoy where the WVKO party is bring held tonight and as planned with WVKO, the owner of the Makoy Center apparently called the Hillard Police and demanded it's removal from the grounds of the center.

But you can still see it for yourself driving along High Street during the Gallery Hop and down by the Arnold Classic at the convention center.

If you miss it tonight,  here's tomorrow's schedule for the McCain IranMobile:

Stop 1: Sunday, March 2, 11 AM-noon

the Iran Mobile

Yes it was a shame that it was censorded however the Makoy Center had a sticky situation as the WVKO progressive party was in the main room while at the same time there was an event for the United States Army Officer Candidates School in another. I personally saw one very ticked off Army officer.

Bad scheduling on the Makoy Centers part.

The IRANMOBILE was cleared though into the lot by Makoy staff and was parked in the reserved parking spaces directly in front of the WVKO party location.

The OCS event was in an entirely different building and the IRANMOBILE was not even visible from their event. The soldiers I spoke with were totally cool.

If it was because of the OCS event that the IRANMOBILE was made to leave, that's even worse . . .

I realize the right wing has pushed the country a long way in that no matter what you say politically you must first say you "honor the troops" and so forth, however, "the troops" are just other citizens in our democracy and they have no rights greater than any other citizen.

Especially where free political speech is concerned.
