Rename Jackson, Washington, or Clay streets to Rose Pak street. Problem solved.

A member of Falun Gong stopped me on BART the other day to ask if I’d sign a petition against naming the station after Rose Pak due to her alleged support of the CCP.

It's not complicated, Rose Pak was fine with PRC business in Chinatown and controversially didn't allow Falun Gong in the Lunar New Year parade. So now Falun Gong doesnt like her and they're making up wild shit like pretending they didnt like the freeway demolition.
