Some good news, and some lingering questions...

Remember this young man, Arthur Avagyan? He was the young man shot in the face during the March 1 events. As per YouTube, you should not watch the video if you are under 18 years old, so I've posted a link to it instead. I wondered what happened to him, along with so many others in the videos from March 1.
It turns out he had surgery in Los Angeles, as reported by Massis and GlendaleNewsPress, as well as RFE/RL (armenian), and seems to be doing well, thankfully. A number of individuals and organizations, it seems mostly if not all Armenian, in the area got together and made sure this young guy got the treatment he needed.
I read those articles in succession with another article on Lragir, entitled "Requiem Ceremony." My condolences to all who lost loved ones in this horrific crash. I am sure the ceremony at Etchmiadzin by Garegin II, Catholicos of All Armenians, will be beautiful.

But where was the Catholicos of All Armenians on the 40th day of mourning, of the victims of March 1? He was blessing Serge Sargsyan's Presidency.

Why, Your Holiness Garegin II, Catholicos of ALL Armenians, didn't the victims of March 1 deserve a requiem ceremony?

May they ALL rest in peace.

btw: it was HAYASTANCIS in LA who helped him, no GOR GORS had any involvment in this guy's medical treatment, in fact GOR GOR DAVAJAN SPYURKS were saying to each other..."dont help this Hayastanci, he will probably take all our money and spend it on himself"

As usual, strong strong disagreement is allowed.
Hateful comments are not.

AEBU, the main backer and organizer for the treatments is a Hunchak affiliated organization. In fact it was the mainly western Armenians AEBU that initially thought of helping, and with friends Hyastanci and Western Armenian, including Hyastanci and Western Armenian doctors was able to arrange for the help. Please fact check your claims before saying such ..(fill in the blank)..things.
