I doubt very much if there would be any personal fear, but there could well be a fear of damaging or destroying their/our internet protest movement. The Iranian protestors on the ground are going to win soon anyway, partly because of unprecedented international support, so let's keep at it peacefully and show how the world has changed and will never be the same again because of the internet..

the site is not run by the Government, but i am sure many of the posters on here like myself are from the USA and subject to the laws of the USA.. so i respect the mods for deleting the crap encouraging violence or describing ways to commit violent acts that are probably illegal to encourage or partake in the USA.. this site is a great resource for the people of Iran and the people around the world who want to be involved in or contribute to assisting the people of Iran.. lets not ruin the site by turning it into a lynch mob type site that encourages violence and in turn putting us under scrutiny by god knows who or what for encouraging a internet lynch mob.. i do not mean the site attacks or putting names with pictures, what i mean are stupid chemical concoctions or homemade crap some encourage that would only serve to hurt those trying to use it.. like someone else said this is real life not Grand theft auto on x box or play station.. |

One of the theme groups that Al Capp created was about the Shmoos. They
were lovable creatures that could satisfy many desires. One of their traits was that of self-sacrifice. They were delighted if a person had Shmoos for lunch. Going back a bit in history, the Redcoats were quite unhappy when the soldiers in the Continental Army hid behind trees, as they had learned from native American Indians. So, it must have been a forgotten lesson when the Civil War soldiers fought it out in the open where they made great targets. Now, we are told that we must play nice and advise youngsters in Iran to be stupid and join mass protests where they are easy targets for mayhem. There are many ways to reverse the odds, and imagination is a great tool to figure out tactics. We in the USA all suffer from attention deficit disorder, where we simply must have immediate solutions. It would make far more sense to talk about the long haul, where changing the government would start with changing the way people think. Defeat Theocracy Now! |

But I'm not concerned about the last part, because the Iranians are much braver and willing to die for freedom, unlike the wussies running this forum using the same tactics as a certain television company named IRIB, namely censorship. Good going in supporting Iranians fighting for freedom of speech by supporting censorship yourselves /sarc. |

Others want to overturn the whole system but that cannot possibly happen unless an alternative system has been designed and some sort of leadership is in place, but that couldn't succeed unless a majority wanted it - which brings us back to fair voting. Without that they would end up with the same scenario - a minority controlling the majority with violence. We all know what could be done, but it's a criminal offence in most of our respective countries to mention some of those things here unless we are merely discussing self defence. I haven't got a clue who runs this forum, but it seems they are dedicated to assisting and protecting others via protest movements and staying in business, rather than going to jail where they cannot help anyone very much.
