re: #139 Alecto

MSNBC reporting that this guy took out full page ads in 2008 to get people to protest Discovery. I want to guess he’s wealthy.

So, the new boogie man - Asian Trust Fund Lone Terrorists. Sorry for my mistake.

That was mentioned in the story from his prior arrest that I linked upthread -

Money-throwing protester gets probation, fine

Lee was arrested with about $21,000 in cash in the duffel bag he had with him at the protest, Meng testified. Johnson told Lee that he would get his bag of money back.

Lee said he had sold several inherited properties in Maui, Hawaii, where he lived prior to moving to San Diego, to pay for the protest, including about $30,000 for full-page advertisements in newspapers. Lee said he had one property left, worth about $200,000, and had plans to give it away in a ‘‘save the planet contest.”
