Contributing sentiments towards policy:

44% : Iran's judiciary spokesperson Masoud Setayeshi said on Tuesday that the trials of protesters had begun in provinces including Tehran, Isfahan and Kurdistan.
40% : Although Amini was Sunni, Wednesday's protests were particularly poignant because the majority Shia in Iran traditionally mark the 40th day of a person's death.
35% : In Tehran, police fired tear gas and buck shot to disperse a crowd near the capital's bazaar who were chanting "death to the dictator," witnesses said.
