Imagine living in a country where government security forces raid your home
Maybe they kick in your door at 3 AM and terrorize your family
Maybe they even break into your lawyers office and take your client files
Iran learned this from the ultracorrupt, totally compromised,
foreign-run DO”J” and FB”I”.
Yes, indeed. The day the coup plotters impeach President Trump there should be severe consequences nationwide for all those who would overthrow the US.
You make Iran sound like the Southern District of New York or Washington, DC, which is an unfair comparison. Iran has far fewer unscrupulous lawyers.
We have the same thing here. Don’t sugarcoat it.
I have no idea why the Second Amendment is so important. /sarc
Remember the Elian Gonzalez raid? The driver wore a mask. He should be I.D’d and his face should be all over the internet. Run outta town.
The mullahs there will throw you off a building for being gay; the Muellers here will lock you in a building and take all your earthly assets for not baking a cake for a gay wedding.
The US coastal elite are SO civilized and superior to those smelly Iranian zealots.
I do not understand just why these steel working folks would allow the government forces to raid their homes without a warrant???? For crying out loud, why don’t these people exercise their 2nd Amendment rights? /s/
Iranian women are most beautiful. We should be going to war for OUR right to see their hair-all of it.
I was wondering recently why we hadn’t heard about unrest in Iran for a while. I do hope those people realize that until they start blowing up some infrastructure, seizing and burning government buildings, and pulling basing (sp) off their motorbikes and beating them to death in the street, they’re not going to get anywhere. This regime will only fall after a broad and bloody uprising.
