Yo Joe,

 

“Dawg”..check this out..You’re wrong and falsifying. Mixed neighborhoods in this country are everywhere. I live in one of them, and I don’t see any “non whites” harassed. Are there instances where some people get some harassments based on their color in some neighborhoods, sure, but it’s not a phenomena. That “widespread phenomena” only exists in your imagination. Stop listening to hip hop. They promote hate and clash of cultures all to make money.

 

So stop lying, it’s annoying!

Have fond memories of the place while passing through,the Kurdish tribesmen look very impressive especially their head dress.Khamenei frequently hikes up Tochal,he wears a baseball hat though!and a casual jacket and trousers.

Are you in a drama class?

I still can't walk in a white neighborhood at night without getting harassed and we are older democracy than 30 years of your Republic. How long ago was it that we were lynched? You got nothing to complain that freedom doesn't come in a night. got to work man, work hard. You can't ask me to bring it to your either.

Stop nagging it's annoying.

yes, why not," "long live seiyet ali", so he can keep murdering, and killing and imprisoning Iraninans, so he can apply medieval laws in our country, so he can arrest young men and women in the streets for not wearing Hijab, so he can provoke the world to attack us, so he can take the country back 10 centuries or so, so he can ruin the economy, so he can force millions of Iranians to leave the country for a better life, so he can ruin Iran's reputation and butchering Iranian values of co existence and human rights, so he can committ holocaust against the Bahais, so he can treat women and minorities as second and third class citizens, sure, yes indeed, "long live seiyet ali".
