« dollyllama : Saudi Cops Grab U.S. Woman In Starbucks

Dolly - you were nice about this...I would've titled it something like "Another Reason why Islamic States are F*cked Up"

If people think our country is far too overbearing and controlling, they just need to read this article and think about all the other instances of this type that we don't hear about yet they occur on a daily basis in these Islamic State Nations...it's ridiculous...

With crime completely under control, the Saudi police force turns it's attention to curbing other dangerous social activities. I'm glad someone is trying to keep this crazy world safe.

If you go abroad you have better learn the local law. In some countries you can not turn right in red. In others you can not visit a public place if you are female and your male companion is not your relative. If your country grants vendetta as a legal right, try it in Europe.
This argument does not intend to make Saudi Arabia look better than it is.

If you think this is just a stupid woman or this is just a stupid country's issue:
we lived in the bible belt more than 2 years long. First we got some verbal abuse for our clothing. My swimming suit (normal in Europe), my wife's shorts, etc... One of my colleges got arrested on rape charges for a weekend, got release on Monday when
it turned out the charges were completely bs. He did not see it coming. He should have known. We were told not to talk to any of our students alone in our office. Especially if the student is from the opposite gender, dont let her close the door of the office, have a college over just to be there in case the girl wants to revenge her grades later on.
