In Iran they riot because they lost an election.

In LA they riot because the won a championship.

Go figure that out!

the riots in Iran are justified (if rioting is justyfiable) the ones in LA are not.

I feel for the people of Iran. No jobs. No economy. No Democracy. Now, they have to live with more of the same. No election really took place. They announced Ahmaninejad as a the winner by landslide far sonner then they could have counted the votes. Oh, and he also "won" by a landslide in the challengers home town. That's just a couple of the questions being asked. Bad news for any country hoping for a stable middle east.

Sorry to threadjack....this was supposed to be a funny coincidence.

yeah, but all valid points.


btw, this thread is now not veiwable by Iranians with internet because the word "Iran" and "democracy" will come up in the same search.
