I think you all know why.

Actually I've started pocketing my DS at work to get in a little DQ9 during my bathroom breaks.
The US has some shitty policy and has for a long time, but we are not as much of theocratic, totalitarian, oppressive, surveilance state as Iran is.
Really? The US isn't a theocratic, totalitarian, oppressive, surveillance state much worse than Iran? You could have fooled me. We have millions in the US prison system most of whom are there for non-violent drug crimes. We have police at nearly every street corner who harass you for not conforming to social norms. We have a vocal religious group that controls at least part of our government at all times forcing inane laws like blue laws on everyone else. You may find moral superiority over the types of persecution in Iran, but the US isn't any better, they just persecute you for different things. OH, and if you're accused of assisting terrorists you can be put in jail indefinitely without trial and without representation even as a US citizen. Then there is the Patriot act... The list goes on an on. NYC and not letting them build the Muslim community center for more examples of the theocracy in the US, and the inability to do fetal stem cell research. On and on it goes, you may think Iran is worse, but that is only because you aren't one of the persecuted groups in the US.
