I remember reading about a time in our history when the people fought for freedom.
Now freedom is sold to us through taxes and fees.

Don't expect any support from the socialist Obumo. Nevermind they want FREEDOM, it is important to keep the status quo!

Sooner or later, President Obama will have to decide what to do. Jokes and insults aside -- for just a moment, please -- what indeed should his course of action be?

Unfortunately without guns, nothing is going to happen. When the American colonies revolted against the British back in the 1700's. Every man in the colonies had weapons that they used for hunting. If the government is the only one that has the guns, you are always going to lose. The shah of Iran was only overthrowned because he refuse to use force to squash the rioters, the mullahs in charge have no such hesitation. I wish them luck, but without guns it's going to be a one-sided fight. That's the reason the British outlawed guns in England, they learned there lesson the hard way.

Nothing will happen because we Muslims know how to deal with the threat from the US & Israel. You have stirred up people & we won't forget it. Right now, we control the White House through Obama. Tommorrow we will control the US. Allah is on our side.

I'm glad we the people can defend ourselves should our government turns against us. The founding fathers had it right.

Strange, almost a reflection of the 70's Iranian revolution.

These protesters have no reason to protest. They get more freedoms in Iran than they can get in the West. If they want to be like the West so bad, perhaps they should move there. And maybe they too can be stabbed by attackers and then shot by security guards like that happend to the Muslim Egyption woman in a German court a day ago. Then they will realize how important it is to have a country of their own and be ran by them, instead by puppets like the Shah, those CIA-trained ARab dictators, Karzai, and so on. These protesters are nothing more than agents of Israel and the West. They didn't learn from Iraq.

Wonder if a coup was to happen in Iran today, if Obama would say they should bring back the sitting president like he agreed with Chavez about the coup in Hondures?

Where is "Barak the Magic Negro" in all of this? As usual, on the wrong side. He seems to believe that negotiating with this murderous thugogocracy of Iran is preferable to sideing with those willing to shed blood for freedom. Obama was predictabile from the beginning. You voted for him. Glad to say, even though I detest McCain, I didn't.,

My conscious is clear! I did not vote for the great fraud, Obama! ACORN rigged our election, Iran rigged their election. BTW, did anyone notice that Nobama was out of the country at the same time as Biden? Neither were here to be patriotic on the 4th of July? Disgusting! Nobama had to take his family on a vacation to Russia!? What a joke.

We have to commend the brave protesters. Look how much is at stake for them to even have a demonstration.

Don't give up the good fight, the whole world is with you!

The voice of the oppressed will not be shut down by mere threats from a government that screwed it's self over by ballot stuffing when in reality some reports have said it wasn't even needed. The over zealous actions of the government have caused the hearts of the marginalized citizen to rally under one cry...and that cry is freedom.

What courageous people! We should be taking notes & should be demonstrating ourselves, for everything that we are losing! Because we aren't speaking out against OUR government, which we are guaranteed the right to do so, we are losing our freedom of speech, our right to privacy, our right to bear arms, and our national safety. We have got to start standing up & letting our political leaders know that we do not want to apologize to everyone for being proud of our country & what we stand for ,or our willingness to fight for freeodom for everyone, that we do believe in justice for teveryone, even terrorists who want to kill us just because of who we are, but we do not bow to anyone-we do not expect anyone to bow to us - just respect our beliefs as we respect everyone elses - as long as innocent people are not being terrorized or killed - also, there is nothing wrong with doing whatever it takes to keep our beloved country and fellow countrymen safe from anymore terrorist attacks!

Proud Muslim. Please keep your mouth shut. You do nothing but instigate our people. If you live live in a Free country, you had better thank our Soldiers for your Freedom to express yourself.


Otherwise..............Get Out. And I'll Help You Pack.

These Iranians are very couragous and determined, I must give them that. If they want to overthrow there leader, they should stage a coup, instead of this though. Coups are much more effective.

So who are these people who select what opinions are shown? Are they the same ones who bombed the 3 towers, the ones that rejoiced atop an apartment building while the towers were blown up?

This situation reminds me of all the national protests in USA after the May 4, 1970 shootings of four innocent students at Kent State in Ohio by the National Guard when they were only in the wrong place at the wrong time. Nixon's coming....Four Dead in Ohio!
