FYI...I am telling the Iranians on twitter to remember this: When the bullets start flying more thickly, then should you win your liberty vow to NEVER AGAIN be disarmed. 80 million armed Americans means there will be no Basij in America, ever.
In America everyone is fat in front of a television. Iranians still have the social cohesion and the cajones to stand up to their government. Don't, for a moment, think that you are in *any* way superior.

There's some truth to what you say. However don't for a moment think that at least 40% of America doesn't still carry the torch for freedom in the world.

And don't you for a second think that you know me or my heart. I did not say I was superior. I simply said I was armed. And as armed Americans, if a Basij tried what is happening in Iran, lead would be flying the other way...or I will be dead.

It is why the left is desperate to disarm us. They know that if they push too hard, that the result will be very bad for them.

I have ghreat resect for the Iranian fighting right now. I send them that message each day. I pray God's blessings on them and pray we can and will help them more.

Except for the fact you are under the slavery of islam good luck ever finding freedom until you buck that...yep, we are in a better position, a heck of a better position.

Give me any country where Christianity is its foundation over an islamic country any day...no matter how bad that country is at least there is hope there for future freedom. Even if you manage to find some freedoms the fundamentalist (those following your religion devoutly) will always fight to replace those freedoms with islamic law and with the ebb and flow of politics they will win again sometime in the future. Yours will be a constant, never ending fight against your own religion just to gain said freedoms much less keep them.
