    … Is it? Are protesters of modesty laws regularly arrested raped and killed without consequences in America?

    Would you prefer to live in Iran right now?

    Look, America is pretty shitty, but if your statement is America = Iran then you clearly know fuck all about Iran. Don’t minimize this woman’s death and the conditions that spurred her to protest.

      “Police killed over 1.3k people in 2023 in America”

      “police officers in the US were charged with forcible rape 405 times between 2005 and 2013. That’s an average of 45 a year. Forcible fondling was more common, with 636 instances.”

      Cops in America are going around murdering and raping without consequences.
